Here's a new board!
Hey we all wanna hear each other play right? Sure we do. So, if you don't have something in our Gallery, how about listing your YouTube, Myspace, etc. links for the rest of us?

SlideMeister

I always look at videos by members when I run across a link. It would be nice to have them in one spot. Can we post links to members videos that we run across or do you prefer that members themselves post the links?

A.J.Fedor · « **Reply #2 on:** July 30, 2008, 08:52:00 AM »

We'll take'em any way we can get'em!
You're thinking just like me. It would be cool to have them all in one spot. I can put them on a stickey post and add to it as they come in. In fact let me do thing over. Stand by, I gotta make a new catagory

All diatonic with those puzzle tunings except for one clip of Girl From Ipanema with guitar and Vern's HFC, and a short one of the CX without the covers on

Oops! I forgot. No diatonics on this board.

YouTube has a way of jumping all over the place. One minute, we're looking at a Chromatic player and two clicks later we get 911 conspiracy clips. With this new feature, we can always come back to a common point of reference; SlideMeister. Sure there are good Chromatic players out there that are not SlideMeisters, but we're going to keep this in the family. If non-members want to be listed here, guess what? They'll just have to join us.

May also suggest that members tag their videos with "slidemeister." It's much easier to search YouTube using the tagging system than it is to try to keep an entire page of links (on a different site, no less) updated.

A.J.Fedor · « **Reply #7 on:** July 30, 2008, 07:01:16 PM »

Yeah, That's definitely a good idea!

It's on a Richter tuned chromatic. I'm not really crazy about a chromatic tuned that way, but I do like the chords.
Most of my videos are about repair or playing, I don't have a lot of actual just playing. Roger and I are planning to do another video or two during lunch break today. I'll be playing "The Roscoe" this old Hohner 270 my grandpa got me for Christmas one year when I was a kid.

I just finished uploading my first videos to YouTube.
I found that by converting them to the MPEG-4 format they upload successfully whereas WMV files sometimes don't.

rgn39 · « **Reply #10 on:** September 06, 2008, 05:07:22 PM »

Whats your youtube handle? I looked for DannyG but didnt find anything.

Danny G · « **Reply #11 on:** September 07, 2008, 12:11:20 PM »

I don't use MSN or play 64X's anymore but DannyG wasn't an available name when I signed up on YouTube, so I used an old MSN email address, DannyG64X.
At my harmonica party I videotaped my friend Grizzly (Warner) playing his guitar and singng a couple of his original songs that are included on a soon to be released CD. The reason I didn't provide a link in my post is because there is no harmonica content. If you're interested, go to YouTube and type "Grizzly I Got My Hippie Back" or Grizzly Bad Seed"

Not YouTube but here's something I recorded a couple of years ago.

Link doesnt seem to work for me fullswing.

The link worked for me. Very nice. I enjoyed it.

Thanks a lot. You guys are very kind. I was using one of my CX-12's on this song. There are a few "creative tones" (mistakes) but I don't like recording so I was OK with the first take.

rgn39 - Sorry the link doesn't work for you. You can try this myspace.com/mark_harp but you'll have to click play. It doesn't start playing automatically.

Autumn Leaves is a fun song to play. Again, thanks everyone for the nice words.

A.J.Fedor · « **Reply #17 on:** October 18, 2008, 09:41:03 PM »

Autumn Leaves IS a lotta fun and in fact, I have it scheduled for my next CD. Now that I think about it, I don't remember if it's in A minor or E minor, but A minor is one of my favorite keys.

Ive been doing a blog on youtube posting something every couple of weeks, no matter how bad, hoping to show progress and encourage others to take up the chromatic. Heres my latest. Any constructive criticism will be much appreciated.

Okay

You might wanna work on your timing a bit. You seem to be getting ahead of the music in a couple spots, but you're off to a good start!

Yes, I just gave him a lesson on "the downbeat".
I'm such a helpful fellow.
Here's one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0txpJj1UsU
It's my pal Bill Barrett--he plays more sheng than chrom on this one, but he shore can play that harmanake!

I was kind of leery of posting any songs here amongst the pros but then decided that the only way to improve is to have your mistakes pointed out. Gary was kind enough to show me where I was off on the timing. I am really impressed about how sensitive you guys's ears are.

Gnarly He Man · « **Reply #23 on:** October 20, 2008, 10:24:40 AM »

Years of counting to four . . .
By the way, did you know there are three kinds of people? Those who can count and those who can't . . .

lol. Did you ever take a stab at standup comedy? I was just fixing to edit my last reply. I really did not realize how loose I was with the timing until I went back and checked out the places you mentioned. I just realized that I do not even keep time with my foot. I will remedy that immediately.

Gnarly He Man · « **Reply #25 on:** October 20, 2008, 10:36:49 AM »

I take all jokes seriously.

Hi, Ron,

Pushing or pulling the beat can be an effective tool for interpreting music; but, as others have pointed out, keeping the beat comes first. Then you can start messing with it.

As a soloist with a backup group, in some ways you can get away with a lot more than playing with others in an ensemble.

Your foot is about as far from Beat Central as a body can get. I would suggest keeping time by tapping your chest, and singing the tune, before you play. You don't have to sing well, or on pitch even, to get a sense of the rhythm.

Listen to someone else's rendition, and play along. That may help, too.

Your playing is very heartfelt and effective. Keep playing—and working!

Tom

He's using Band in a Box for backup--so I suggested he mute the melody and watch for when the note turns red.
Easiest way to read music I know of!

PS I was dismissed by the caroling group after I attended three three hour rehearsals --
And it's not even November yet!
Moral of the story kids is learn to read music; even bass clef, if you have to!

PS Gary: Sorry to hear of your dismissal. It doesn't mean that you have nothing to offer. There may be other groups in your community that would welcome your contribution.

Best,

Tom

Thanks man!
I got right to work and made a YouTube video of a Christmas song--using a Chordomonica!

Surely someone will hire me for their Christmas party!
