Jason, there is so much in just this lesson alone, and I want to say that I appreciate you. To put this kind of truly helpful stuff online - for free - is tremendous. You're a good human, Jason. Thank you.
Great video. I think there is one typo in the notes shown on the screen. At about the 16:15 mark for Pedal Point, the second note says 3b (for 3 blow), but you meant for it to show as 3 draw half step bend, correct?
Jason, just want to let you know how much your videos mean to me. Even though I'm a year late on this one, it's what I'm working on now. I've been practicing the major pentatonic for the last month with your videos and there's still a long way to go. I never thought about scales much and just wailed away, not worrying about subtle differences in bending. I had a lot of fun and entertained a lot of friends, but when I started playing again it was just the same old shit. Still getting a grasp on all the theory stuff, but I'm coming along. Thanks for all you do brother, it's teaching an old dog new tricks! Your TH-cam lessons are my inspiration to keep on hairpin! 🙏🎶
I’ve been playing for like a LONG time and I pretty much have stagnated and not really learned anything new for like at 8 years, and this video has been one of the absolute most helpful things I’ve ever seen.
I really am learning tons of useful stuff from your most recent vids done in '21! Jason, ur a great teacher, very patient, with details from basic to sophisticated playing techniques. I learned my basics from you several years ago, & these newer vids are further evidence of your expertise. Thanx!!!
Amazing, i didn't think the pedal point was that easy to understand, your way to explain is awesome Jason, the only problem is not to have enough time for practicing all the good material you give to us every friday, thanks a lot dude!
Pat Ramsey-we can fly and it’s about time. Those songs are where I first learned pedal point in the haaaaap so nice. Dude sounds like a muted saxophone
Tons of great stuff. Most of it even i can make work (a bit). Never knew about Pedal Point. Thats cool enuff to put some work into. The backing track is really good too play with too. I'd never have recognized how much can be done with it without you showing it. Thanks so much!
Hello Jason, First i wanna say, it was really fun for me to see what you have to say about funky harmonica. Second the idea of transferring licks from lowe to middle its and using 3' its like whole new world for me ! it reminds me of call and response from Gussow lessons!
Thank You Jason! There are a lot of very cool blues players around and a huge amount of good music energy in the air. But Your‘s is different. I listen to a lot of stuff. I enjoy it. But the music I want to play on my harmonicas is almost Your music. Thanks Sir
Haunting sweet tone in the opening tune - that's blues man. Every note sounded like a blue note. Thanks for another great video Jason. Really excited to try the pedal tone idea - it has a rootsy sound kind of like traditional celtic with a deep blues undertone.
Amazing tutorial! Like I said in the premiere.. time to annoy the girlfriend all day working on sharpening up my diatonic playing 😅😅 and it's all thanks to you lmao cheers bro!
Ever since your last upload Abt practice I've been more aware of things I'm doing just cuz I'm used to doing that,, not because I planned on it PS Do you feel sax is harder or easier. Or different completely?
@@jasonricciThanks for your answer Jason. I guessed it was a custom comb and I visited the Blue Moon website. Now I'm toying with the Idea of improving my Special 20s ! Thank you again, Jason, and take care.
Couldn't attend yesterday but very helpful as always. Thanks, Mooncat. By the way, if I may be so bold. I've always wondered if "Ricci" is an Italian name? I'm a profesisonal translator for German, English and Spanish, so such things always ring a bell inside me. Sorry if I'm too straight with that. :)
Here i gaux. little history on me. I found an old wood comb hohner in golden gate park back in 2010is, give or take.. Played that for 5 years straight by ear except I did research bending.. Stopped playing harmonica and a cpl yrs later I had plenty of time to learn something I chose guitar and obsessed 7-8 straight a day That's when I learned Abt scales soon I started playing harp again while focused on guitar, I never in looked into harmonica scale it didn't cross my mind and know one mentioned in it. However the reason for this comment is. I'm having trouble focusing on repetition of scales on harmonica. The guitar scales seemed come easily.. And at the same time I was more focused on practice at the time of learning guitar
hi Jason, i've tried to sign up to make a donation to your Patreon fund but the website won't seem to allow me to. Don't know if anyone else has had problems? Very many thanks for the lessons, they're amazing!
I can't thing of any player out there that uses the humble pentatonic scale so creatively as Mr. Mooncat Ricci; and he calls it "basic uses of the minor pentatonic" LOL
A PDF & MP3 COMBO OF JASON RICCI LICKS!!! 😭😭😭😭 10 EASY, 10 MEDIUM 10 HARD 10 SLOW, 10 MEDIUM 10 FAST COME ON JASON!!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 let us give you money 💰🤑😏😌

7:30 thank you for the explanation. And it’s absolutely true . That’s why your classes are so so hard .

Great lesson. I like to play 7 blow note with 6 overblow bend, sounds really good.

This is cool Jason, thanks.
Hell man, you described me to a T. A lot of times I have to think about not hitting the flat-5.
Awesome!
So good
Thank you so much 👍

Oh my god Jason, how long have you been doing this? I used to check your videos somewhere around 2008 or something :D Still got it bro!
Every single Friday for a LONG time now!!! Welcome back!!! Thank YOU ❤️
Great lesson. You translate well enought, that i can understand almost everything :-) , although my English is very poor. I wish you health
Great discipline to curb the tendency to play the the 3 draw.
Totally and the 5 blow 4 bend too!
@@jasonricci knowing the road map visually and physically. Really appreciate you Jason. Makes me feel great that you respond back.
Great lesson, I have to find the musicality with the scale because it is not smooth. Thanks!!!
Thank you broham.
lol! Consent is ALWAYS KEY!😂😂
Amazing tutorial! Like I said in the premiere.. time to annoy the girlfriend all day working on sharpening up my diatonic playing 😅😅 and it's all thanks to you lmao cheers bro!
Thanx & gwaan, Man! 💚💛❤
Great 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Ever since your last upload Abt practice I've been more aware of things I'm doing just cuz I'm used to doing that,, not because I planned on it
PS
Do you feel sax is harder or easier. Or different completely?
I don't know because I never really tried saxophone
Best lessons around. Jason, what's the comb material on the Marine Band you're using on this video ? Thanks a lot for your teaching.
Thanks Michael. Its a corian from Tom Halchak at Blue Moon. Appreciate you!
@@jasonricciThanks for your answer Jason. I guessed it was a custom comb and I visited the Blue Moon website. Now I'm toying with the Idea of improving my Special 20s ! Thank you again, Jason, and take care.
@@michelcoicaud6888 awe man! Tom is the best and the hydro plated covers too are amazing at preventing rust! Tell him a Moon Cat sent you!!!
thankyou
Anything like you? Dude your blues royalty. Ain't no one like you. But I'm trying. ;-)
You got this!
Yessir!👍
Couldn't attend yesterday but very helpful as always. Thanks, Mooncat. By the way, if I may be so bold. I've always wondered if "Ricci" is an Italian name? I'm a profesisonal translator for German, English and Spanish, so such things always ring a bell inside me. Sorry if I'm too straight with that. :)
Totally Italian!
Jason you are a religion! Whenever I watch your videos I feel a little enlightened. Don't you want to start a sect? I'll sign up.
HAAAAA! Too funny!!!!! I think i would be a false prophet so I'll stick to being the guy that only knows a little! HAAAA'
How are you Jason? May I ask you how do you play this beautiful pattern you start at 1:01? Thank you so much.
It’s what you call Pedal point?
@@streetpixel Yes and it's described later in the video!
@@streetpixel 15:50
Hi ricci i love your lessons i m from argentina and i can t found information about leading notes. If can explain somethig
Thank you so much you are amazing.
Back 👌
Here i gaux.
little history on me.
I found an old wood comb hohner in golden gate park back in 2010is, give or take..
Played that for 5 years straight by ear except I did research bending..
Stopped playing harmonica and a cpl yrs later I had plenty of time to learn something I chose guitar and obsessed 7-8 straight a day

Keep at it it will fall in place!!!
Yeah man
hi Jason, i've tried to sign up to make a donation to your Patreon fund but the website won't seem to allow me to. Don't know if anyone else has had problems? Very many thanks for the lessons, they're amazing!
Well shux!!!!
Hey Jase, that real staccato sixteenth note stuff accessable to those of us who tongue block?
I don't believe so although others will tell yes without demonstrating it. In other word I have yet to hear it.
Check out my video on tongue blocking vs lip pursing
It's seems that you kinda bend 6 overblow Master. How did you do that? ❤
Just like a blow bend!!!
@@jasonricci thanks Jason. You're the Blues Boss. 💖
I can't thing of any player out there that uses the humble pentatonic scale so creatively as Mr. Mooncat Ricci; and he calls it "basic uses of the minor pentatonic" LOL
Awe man MUCH love!!!!
So is this
the scale used in playing Arabian music?
Not necessarily. There are others that would be better for that but this one im sure would work ok for some...
Hey Jason how are you
Rockin and Rollin!
Hey Jason sorry I missed your stream I was sleeping and I have your Instagram
Attention! The pedal point exercise is highly addictive. Could cause lip bleeding!
My man!!!!!
A PDF & MP3 COMBO OF JASON RICCI LICKS!!! 😭😭😭😭 10 EASY, 10 MEDIUM 10 HARD
