Harmonica Lessons › Community Forum › Harmonica Q&A › John Sebastian Style…how to learn?
What is the name of the style used by John at 1min 43sec of the video clip, and which is the best book to learn this style BTW, what is the tune called?
Can’t answer the question but it’s a great piece of music 🎶 thanks for posting up
Francis,
go to https://www.johnbsebastian.com/ and post the question to John. It’s worth a try.
All the best,
Udo
Hi Francis,
That’s the point in this entirely improvised piece of music where he switches from 2nd position to 1st position and plays in the way the harmonica was actually designed to play way back in the 1800’s.
We refer to that style of playing nowadays as tongue slapping.
Check out Step 30 in the course, that’s where I go into this in more detail.
🙂
