Harmonica Yokocho is a former flea market-turned-bar/restaurant/shopping area. Lots of stuff in every alley. We just poked around to take a look, not to eat anything.

Just messing as I was bored. Put this on my scanner and, well, scanned it.

Althea came over and wanted to get rid of a big bag of harmonicas. I took a few. Beware, I will tootle at you!

Just started playing harmonica - this is my first Special 20 to get me started off.

 

Flash about 1/3 power to the left and 10" above with a gold Lee gel over it; harmonica is sitting on the LCD panel off an old flat screen, the old screen itself is acting as a light source to the right of the picture.

Reed-plate is the term for a grouping of several reeds in a single housing. The reeds are usually made of brass, but steel, aluminium and plastic are occasionally used. Individual reeds are usually riveted to the reed-plate, but they may also be welded or screwed in place. Reeds fixed on the inside (within the comb's air chamber) of the reed-plate respond to blowing, while those on the outside respond to suction.

John Popper gave Devyn one of his harmonicas! I am so jealous. He also gave out a few others to audience members.

The Genie Junkies are a San Antonio musical group. Since they had begun once in Oct. 2004, they have changed a lot from musical styles to band members flowing in and out, but this lineup as of now has yet to change. From left: Alex McBride, 17, on percussion, Josh Hernandez, 16, on guitars, and Justin Vasquez, 17, on harp (also known as harmonica).

 

*Just to let ya'll know, I didn't take this picture. This was actually done by a friend, Alexa Smothers. I did the photoshop work on it and made it more presentable. She has given me permission to post this and use it for showing. Again, I am not the photographer of this piece. Credit to Alexa Smothers.

This GLASS HARMONICA was invented by Benjamin Franklin in 1761. It consists of glass bowls tuned by size, mounted one inside the other with cork on a metal spindle. The glasses are made to spin with a flywheel attached to a foot treadle. Moistened fingers fub the exposed rims of the glasses to produce on of the most beautiful sounds created by man. (From the program notes of a concert by Dean Shostak on March 6th.)
