Koei & Zhin - Manji Blues Harp Jam (Part 1 of 2) video

Japanese and Malaysian blues harmonica jam. First ever of its kind where two formidable Asian blues harp players go at it to showcase the awesomeness of blues improvisation. It don't get more real than this folks. Enjoy! (don't forget to check out Part 2!) For the harp nerds, we were both only using stock Suzuki Manji's in A for this E jam. This was the "Suzuki Harmonica Masters: That's What Friends Are For Concert" held at The Summit Subang USJ Auditorium (16 April 2011). The concert is for supporting the Malaysian Association for the Blind. It showcased a broad variety of different types of harmonicas and music. A little bit of background info: I actually met Koei 2 years ago at SPAH 2008 (Sacramento). It was when I first introduced myself to the fantastic folks who work for Suzuki at their showroom right before they showed me the Manji harmonica for the first time ever! Fast forward in time, we got to meet again as "harmonica brothers" and had a great time. Koei is a fantastic guy who travels a lot around the world and often conducts free workshops for underprivileged people in rural areas. His contributions are indeed something worthy to note.
