This is a digital backup of the Complete Country Harp Techniques with Charlie McCoy for VHS Home Video.
For archival purposes.
From the back of the VHS Cover:
Seventeen techniques demonstrated, plus solos...
Note bending, Grace notes, Hand vibrato, Rolls, Tone control, Note splitting, Fast bluegrass riffs, Cajun accordion effect, Hammer-on effect, Octave splits, Alternate tongue blocking, High-speed tongue playing, 'Country tuning', Throat vibrato, Long breath control, The train whistle, "The Orange Blossom Special" train rhythm.
Super-session musician Charlie McCoy has released over 20 albums since his recording career began in the 1960s, when he enjoyed enormous success in Nashville, completing upwards of 400 sessions a year. He was a mainstay on Elvis Presley's recordings, both in Nashville and Los Angeles, and was one of the few Nashville session players to attend Bob Dylan's recordings of 'Blonde On Blonde', 'Nashville Skyline' and 'John Wesley Harding'.
Formerly a member of legendary Nashville bands Area Code 615 and Barefoot Jerry, Charlie currently tours with his own band and has a long-running TV series in the United States. His many music awards include a Grammy, and while predominantly known as a harmonica player, his musical prowess encompasses a variety of other instruments.

Charlie McCoy was one of my idols when I was coming up in the early 1970s. My favorite harp in those days was the Hohner Golden Melody until the quality went down in the early 1980s. For the last forty years, it's been the Lee Oskar, the most durable of them all! I can't believe I just paid $50 for my last Lee Oskar diatonic harp on Amazon! When I started out in 1972, the Marine Band listed for $3.75 and the Blues Harp was $4.25.

Most complete harmonica teaching video-covers more in 40 minutes (including actual physical alteration of harp for tuning!) than hours of other training videos--and he shows how his techniques sound when played with an actual band. This is the Real McCoy!

Sir,I have never learned as much from a single master, let alone a single clip! I feel much more confident to try out these new techniques.

Man! Listen to him bend that 3 draw! Four very distinct notes! I've been listening to and (trying to) playing a long time and I've never heard that level of precise control. Amazing!

You would not think, to look at him, that he was famous long ago - for playing acoustic guitar on Desolation Row !

He played bass one handed and trumpet at the same time on Subterranean Homesick Blues. Al Kooper said that it was the most astonishing act of musicianship that he had ever witnessed.

@@micksherlock4083 Not quite ! There's no trumpet on SHB, for one thing ....... That was on Bringing It All Back Home, which was before Charlie appeared on Highway 61, just on the one track, on guitar. Next album, Blonde On Blonde, 1966. From Wikipedia : - Charlie McCoy - bass guitar, guitar, harmonica, trumpet. At the mo I'm going for Rainy Day Women, but I'm sure it won't be too difficult to find out which track it was ............................ Great story, whichever track it was !

I believe Charlie has aged quite a bit since this video was shot. Nonetheless, it is very informative and I will be working on many of these tongue blocking techniques in the weeks to come.

He’s using his jaw to move quickly to the next note instead of moving his head or harp, he’s explaining it exactly how it’s done.
