I just uploaded a video of me improvising. I would have put the camera facing me but I couldn't really get my cell phone positioned good. I'm really interested in hearing some feedback from fellow harmonica players. Tell me what ya think.

Nice! Very good, theres a lick i really like about, 1:05 into the song.

Yes! and your trying the Sugar Blue stuff- about 1:40 into song. Hoochie Coochie man. I love that little tonguebocked lick. Ive been practicing it, dont have it very good right now but soon.

I like the Improv. Keep it up dude, your doing great!

Thanks man. And yeah, I'm really glad you caught the Sugar Blue stuff. I love his version of Hoochie Coochie Man.

Well, I liked it. I have always been a lip blocker, and always thought I wanted my sound to be clean single notes, but I liked what you were doing with your tongue blocking and slapping. It adds some percusion in there. Sounds good.

Now you've got me going. We all set around this forum and talk about tips, technique, and riffs. Adam gives us his videos for instruction. Jason Ricci, Sugar Blue, etc. etc. give us videos to aspire to. Lets start adding our own videos for professional critisism, inspiration, and possibly just to hear some good harp.

Here's mine.

Edit:
I know Easy is a blues harp staple. I really didn't plan on making a video of easy, I just fell into it as I was riffing. I want everybody to know I don't think my version of Easy is the next best thing to Big Walter, I was just making a video. (just wanted to clear the air in case anybody thought I was trying to show off and didn't know how bad I sucked. I know I'm a beginner here.)

Here's another video of me playing. But this one is over some random jam track I had. Once again, I'd love some feedback, oh and I got my cell phone positioned so that you can actually see me this time. Tell me what you think.
