A great Harmonica for a great price is Juzzie Smith Blues Harmonica.

The harmonica only has 10 holes but what you can do with these notes blows me away. With the excitement of the Grolsch Blues Festival audience and having a great sound on stage allowed this very cool harmonica solo to be created.
I'm playing a B flat classic 1847 by Seydel and my Cigar Box Guitar is in tuning FCF
Microphone is a Rackit by blows me away productions.
Harmonica neck holder is a Gecko.
If you would like to learn how to play harmonica I created a fun easy 67 lesson course called "Press Play & Blow Away". All you need is a Key C diatonic 10 hole harmonica and 15 min practice time each day. Here is the link. Have fun!

Thanks to Rumi for the great filming.

Besides Justin Johnson, you don’t see many people playing a diddley bo. Awesome performance.

[mhaipeter]

[rainerk]

Funk all "around"!
The way we love it and share it ... because music is there the good people are!

I Love Great music.
I'm also an artist.
Creative artist.
And whenever I listen to Juzzie perform, especially this cut, I'm reminded of Snoopy from Charles Shultzs' Charlie Brown.

I listen to this fantastic piece of music and I see Snoopy and Tweetie Bird knocking it out the park

I play a Harp. I play guitar ( I know he's playing a cigar box) and I can tap but not at the same time. He's very tight!! Great performance!!

Juzzie Smith... This video was recommended on the side here to my right and I gotta say, that was pure awesomeness. Made my hairs stand at attention on top of me gooseflesh! Had to watch it again. What a way for me to discover you.

[dobbygfred]

Hot Damn! Frickin’ outstanding brother

[djratino]

Ah yeah... Reminds me of my younger days. I made a homemade tambourine that strapped to my foot. A bass pedal smacking on a cardboard box. Playing acoustic guitar with a harmonica and kazoo on a mic stand. I didn't have the Neal Young neck clamp. Jamming to, "Train Kept a Rolling" by Aerosmith. 🎵🎶🐀🐾

[lebe]

More groove than all the Stones together.

[rgboss]

Just as cool as the farming simulator 19 intro song

[iustincobuz]

what is that instrument with strings called and what is this genre? I think I found my kind of music

[txnrik]

as a musician, gotta say, in fact, that IS one of the coolest, if not the coolest harp solos i've ever heard - this guy is a genius

[barco]

What a fantastic coordination between the band members! Only a few people can do that! Congratulations from Brazil🇧🇷

[pieterpieters]

Saw him in Australia, such a nice guy and so friendly and not to mention how talented he is. Thank you for taking time to talk to me Juzzie, you are a legend mate.

[gavobentlo]

My goodness I love it so much. That harmonica is outstanding and so emotionally evocative. Sounds like a train telling me a story about its past.

I have spent most of my 74 years in the blues. Learned from Muddy, Skip, Jimmy Cotton, Bukka, Buddy, and John Hurt. I have never heard of Juzzie before - maybe I fell asleep, but my G-D keep on truckin'. If you have not heard him, look up One String Sam, a bluesman and street musician from the Detroit area. Also, for spectacular harmonica, look up Doctor Isaiah Ross from Fint, Michigan.
