To me, there is no other harmonica player, past or present, that can play and make music as powerful/emotional and technically amazing as JAson Ricci can.

This is my feable attempt to pay tribute to my favorite harp player.

Very impressive Carl! Your obviously dedicated to getting better, something lacking in a lot of players.

Sick. I heard the next song on the album start in my head. That was tight bro.

I've had a reality check with the speeds current players are achieving and I'm envious of your speed.
My tongue is like a dead fish and my chugging is soooo slooow.
Keep at it, it'll come.

Good playing but maybe I'm missing something here. Would this not be a tribute to Lee Oskar? This song was/is a classic rock hit played by War, the band Lee Oskar was in...BN

BN .... Its part of the "Jasons solo" track on the dirty memory album. I heard him play it live last week. Twice. It was killer.

For those that don't know. Heres the track. Check it.

Carl A was pretty spot on.






I like at the end, the noises he makes when he gets outta breath. He is human afterall, who'da thunk it?

CarlA - that was hardly feeble. I think you got it down. Practice it 1000 more times and I think you will approach the speed and fluidity that Jason has.

Thanks for watching and for the kind words :)

@ Florida trader
I think I may need to practice this song 1,000,000 times, and even then it may not be attainable -lol :)
Thanks for chiming in

CarlA, hopefully I don't throw this thread too off topic but I'm curious.

What do you guys think on this song is Jason playing the 12 bar blues form or is it more of a free style? If it is the 12 bar blues form where is the first downbeat? And is this 2nd pos on a C harp?
