Howard Levy is known to be the pioneer of overblows on the diatonic harmonica, but his music shouldn’t be defined merely by the use of this technical tool. Starting out as a piano player, he first started using overblows to enable him to play the music that  he wanted to play. And they have allowed Howard to take the instrument to soaring new heights across a diverse range of genres. And make no mistake, he has rhythm, feel, a great bluesy tone when he needs it, and most of all, blistering chops. Select the Chapter Markers tab above to select different sections of the podcast (website version only).Howard's website:https://www.levyland.com/Keys of harps on some albums shown here:http://www.levyland.com/harpshop/Discography:https://www.levyland.com/discography/https://www.levyland.com/discography/complete-discography/Trio Globo website:trioglobo.comTeaching:New Directions for Harmonica:https://www.homespun.com/instructors/howard-levy/ArtistWorks:https://artistworks.com/harmonica-lessons-howard-levyOut of the Box DVD:http://www.levyland.com/product/out-of-the-box-dvd/Effect pedals:https://www.lonewolfblues.com/boogieman.htmlYouTube:Lonesome Pine Special with Bella Fleck and the Flecktones:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGJqxXHiXkoAmazing Grace:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmL4RM7IA7APodcast website:https://www.harmonicahappyhour.comDonations:If you want to make a voluntary donation to help support the running costs of the podcast then please use this link (or visit the podcast website link above):https://paypal.me/harmonicahappyhour?locale.x=en_GBSpotify Playlist: Also check out the Spotify Playlist, which contains most of the songs discussed in the podcast:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5QC6RF2VTfs4iPuasJBqwT?si=M-j3IkiISeefhR7ybm9qIQPodcast sponsors:This podcast is sponsored by SEYDEL harmonicas - visit the oldest harmonica factory in the world at www.seydel1847.com  or on Facebook or Instagram at SEYDEL HARMONICASand Blows Me Away Productions: http://www.blowsmeaway.com/Support the show
