Rachelle Plas - HOHNER Masters of the Harmonica
Why don't we venture over and talk about harmonica players. I have a bunch of harmonicas. I was given an entire collection by a friend. They belonged to her father and she wanted to give them to someone who would appreciate them as much as her dad did. She knew that I played harmonica "behind closed doors / solo that no one could hear me" every now and then. I have a couple Golden Melodies. In the collection were about a half-dozen unused harps. I was a happy man that day. Still am.
I enjoy playing harmonica, but I enjoy singing more. I have tried the Bob Dylan / Neil Young thing of trying to play guitar and play the harmonica at the same time. No success so far. Truth be told, I can't even walk a straight line sober anymore. I do love to hear the harmonica being played, especially southern style blues/rock.
Rachelle Pass is one of my favorite harmonica players. Her energy on stage high-octaine. In this video, she shares about her favorite instrument, the harmonica.
If you have a favorite harmonica, guitar, uke, bass, flute, trumpet, violin or any other instrument, and would love to share you story, then please contact me by email at revrickmang@gmail.com.
God's grace, and favorite musical instruments, amaze me greatly! ><>
