    I have played harmonica professionally since I was 13. I am seventy years old, still playing for a living. Will seems to be able to unlock mysteries that have worried me for decades. I practice with Will's vids every day. Waiting for a chromatic lesson!

      Great lesson Will ... I found a video with seven Butterfield licks in the key of A ... It's done by Paul Lassey ... He demonstrates the lick while he puts the tabs up .... Their licks for practicing ... Thanks for this over all lesson on Paul's style it simplifies everything ... Paul used to go down with a quart of Budweiser and sit on the shores of Lake Michigan and practice for hours ... Now we know what he was practicing , he was perfecting that blues scale ... Thanks great lesson ... Your dynamite on the tin sandwich !!!!

    I have been wanting to get the "Hohner Moaner" harp sound for 40 years off and on. When I was young I wrote to Hohner to see if Paul was playing the "Trumpet Call" harp. Thanks for the insight young man, you are a great player yourself!

    What a gift. Thank you. Back in my younger days while the world lit up with The Who, Led Zeppelin, etc. I was stuck on Howlin' Wolf, Butterfield, Muddy, Willie Dixon, Taj Mahal and others. This is great stuff. Thanks again.

    These kinds of lessons are awesome! if you are starting to play you can find tons of beginners information everywhere but not so much this kind of lessons, precise, fast and with a clear structure and tabs, also considering Will Wilde style, are the best specially for advance beginners and intermedium people who wants to keep improving and not just to learn some song and licks, learn a style and get ideas to build your own. Appreciate it bro, Thanks!

    I am sure in your beginner days that you thought the same as me now.. It sounds like somebody rampaging on every hole on the harp.. It is amazing to me that so few holes can make the myriad of notes that this instrument can make.. Mr. Butterfield is amazing, as are you.. Love this kind of lesson, and thank you so much.. Take care, Brother....

  • @z1522
    @z1522 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Many of PB's trademark sounds, as from 6:30, combine the triplet transitions with his huge deep vibrato few can match - some attribute to his flute background. We too often associate power with amplification, and James Cotton pushed that hard, but many of Butterfield's extended tracks, both live and on the transformative album "Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw," are basically miked acoustic, yet the tonal qualities shine through even richer than with his familiar power setups.

    In effect, oral tablature for blues harp. Awesome. I've been playing blues harp for 50 years (with a 35 year time out for a career and to raise a family), and never saw playing broken down like this this. When people used to ask me, "How did you do that," I had to say, "I dunno, I just do." Great job, Will!

    Excellent content 👏
    If anyone is frustrated being able to play Butters riffs, but it sounds a bit “off”, keep in mind that he played a harp tuned to 7-limit, and not Equal temperament or modern compromised… it has a different feel with some of the reeds tuned to much differently (5D -29cents). If you’re diehard, find a good harp tech to set one up for you.

    Thanks man, I'm just an amateur but you just nailed it. A few hints here and there and played all the notes spot on. Makes it a treat for the rest us. Also very happy that you bothered to gift us with key (C played in G), instead of assuming that we can all figure that out. Speaking only for myself, that is sometimes a difficulty.

    great lesson, as usual; now, about paul buttefield, he seems to often play the major third instead of the minor third in minor key(such as the work song where he plays the 7 draw all over the place despite the tune being minor); he plays them fast, so it;s hard to spot, but he does it; so if he can get away with it, well... what about us :)
