Re: [Harp-L] Jon Gindick



Hey, friends on Harp-L, thanks for remembering how my early stuff got you started on the harp.

One of the joys of Jam Camp is that I get to know many of the people whose lives were changed
by my books, cds and videos (and apologize, when necessary!)


Much love to you all, Jon

PS We still have room for a few more at our Mississippi Delta Blues Harmonica Jam Camp
this September 28 to October 2. http://www.bluesharmonicajamcamp.com

I was 12 years old when I got "Country and Blues Harmonica for the Musically Hopeless" on Klutz Press. The basic techniques and Jon's philosophies (The River of G) still shape my musical outlook. I had studied trumpet in elementary school, but music never clicked. Jon made music make "sense" to me.


In 2008 I called Jon to ask if I could help out at his San Diego Jam Camp. I don't really get out enough to have a big "name" in the harp world, but thanks to youtube Jon invited me to help instruct.

It was a life-highlight for me to meet and earn the respect of the guy who got me started. He really is a genuine person, with a genuine calling in this world.

When people ask me about instructional materials, I always suggest his "Rock and Blues Harp", as well as Dave Barrett's "Building Harmonica Technique"
