"Legendary Rhythm & Blues Revue at Knuckleheads in Kansas City on February 8, 2008. Magic Dick (harp player for the J. Geils Band), heats up the house with the classic "Whammer Jammer" - includes Tommy Castro (guitar), Chris Sandoval (drums), and Scot Sutherland (bass)....though I think Tommy and Scot are just clapping - Dick and Chris are doing all the work."

I once tried to play the Harmonica with the same results as any other instrument I tried to play. I think I have been hell bent on learning how to play good music. I finally hit on the secret. Thanks to Steve Jobs, I now can play any instrument I want with the touch of a screen. Now, that is real progress.

Interesting, and I'm glad that he did not call his new harmonica the Magic Dick.
There no way I could play that pipe, or is it fife. |
Not bad for a Jewish boy from Connecticut.
“When I was three years old, I had a pretty bad case of the flu,” Magic Dick told About.com in 2009. “My mother bought me a Marine Band harmonica, which is the very same harp that I play today.” He’s been in love with the instrument all his life. In 1992, he and musician Pierre Beauregard were awarded a U.S. patent for an improved harp they call the “Magic Harmonica.” hipquotient.com |
Man, this video brings back so many memories.
This is tune has a big part of what rock 'n' roll should always be - you got to have the rhythm first; then your build from there ... if you must. |
You are da man Bobby Tony in more ways than I can count.
Thank-you so much for the nature of your posts. They are varied, informational, and often poignant. Thanks for helping us preserve the past. The past is who we are, and who we often become. |
