Hello Henkes,

you, good sir, rock my world.


_______________
Thanks to the human heart by which we live,
Thanks to its tenderness, its joys, and fears,
To me the meanest flower that blows can give
Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears.

Well, I guess the only way to get the 1920's delta blues FM radio type of sound on the harp is to get a "Shure-bullet mic". It has a distorted sound with sustain is all I know. I think I'm starting to figure out how to make the prison yard whailing sound though, you can use your lip, but that has to much wind noise, so I think the tongue is the right way to do it.

I'm not sure if you heard any songs from Bruce Springsteen's tour that he's on right now, but the rendition of the song "Reason to Believe" is sung and played with harmonica through a Shure-green bullet mic. For a back beat he stomps his foot hard into the wood floor with a mic set in between two floor boards. The sound is an amazing thing to hear, very bluesy, very grim. The sound looks like it could come from a scene where it's raining, and your in a slave yard or workers field with them working away in the night through the rain, hence the prison yard whailing, and the "BOOM BOOM BOOM., BOOM BOOM BOOM" heave-ho of the slaves or workers (boot stomping). Very wild :cool:

Hey Hey Henkes, hows it going? I've been trying to emulate that "prison yard 1920's delta blues FM radio sound" on the ole' harmonica. It's a really tough bend to do, so could you give me a few pointers on that kind of bend? that "1920's prison yard whailing" bend :)

btw check out my pic, pretty neat huh? Harmonica forever.

Yay its Kenhes! :D

It's good to know you're doing well :)

I myself just started on another year of schooling, meaning less time for fun and more time for...Less fun :P :D


I'm currently writing the follow up on my first book (Prophecy of Exodus) I named it Castle of Arcane. :) It's not easy to write though it takes alot of practice to get the right words set. Maybe one day I'll publish it! :)


Mostly I'm playing alot of Guildwars, when I can that is :P, and hang out with some friends on other forums. Who knows, maybe one day I'll return here where I have so many memories. Good and bad :)

Take Care Henkes and let me hear from you more :)

But thanks all the same bro :)

Stay frosty.
