Product Description
Synopsis
Billy is an unparalleled source of historical information about the development of the harmonica in this century. After delivering an informative and entertaining introduction about the instrument he loves, Billy walks and talks you through the important aspects of the styles of both Sonny Boys and the two Walters. Each artist's work is demonstrated by a performance with rhythm section backing and then a clear, concise explanation. Topics covered include: playing in first, second and third positions; note bending; trills; back up accompaniment; and playing minor blues. Billy shows it all with diatonic and chromatic harmonicas, spicing his musical analysis with anecdotes and gentle humour. A booklet with the main musical examples transcribed combines with the DVD in the definitive method for learning classic Chicago blues harmonica.

I bought this as a birthday present for my brother, a self taught blues harp player who has been playing the "tin sandwich" for over 35 years. He rated it very highly and thought it was well presented with a good standard of demonstration performances. Techniques are well explained and even as player of his quality and experience, he found out a few new tricks and confirmed a few other things he'd long ago figured out for himself. A good choice for both beginner and more experienced players.
