Very Meade Lux Lewis style playing by Gene Taylor, with some modern melody lines in the mix, I like it. And Kim Wilson, well, 'nuff said. Great video.

Great I asked Kim this year if he was using a Astatic T3, but I can see by the grill its a Astatic UT 48 a Predecessor of the T3. He told me he got the mic from Dennis Gruenling

Thanks for your response ajwhales. The DVD version is different. Not better, but different. And the DVD has lots of fine music, with Kim, Kid Ramos and Gene Taylor playing at their best. There's a horn section on a few tracks. Makw=e sure you can play in 5.1 Surround Sound, however. If not, maybe you should get the CD version instead. Regards to all Kim, Rod Piazza, James Harman, Curtis Salgado, Peter Green and Duster Bennett fans!

@cianuro86 first of all, Kim is using a Bb harp in 3rd position, the song is in C. In that passage, he is using what is called a flutter. You do it by covering three holes with your tongue and Very Rapidly slap your tongue against them while keeping the fourth hole on the right open to sound off the note. Magic Dick did this on the opening to Whammer Jammer....Check it out!! Hope this helps........

Might be trying all day and not getting that sound. It’s a little different than you describe (which is what Portnoy call batting the harp). Three holes yes, but trill tongue side to side so hole 3 is played alternating with hole 5. Cotton used it extensively on Muddy Waters at Newport Folk Festival 1960, only mostly a spread of 4 holes alternating holes 1 and 5. A nice move to practice on someone 😂

Hi there ajwhales. I see that your query is six months old, so you may have acquired a Kim DVD by now. If not, then get 'Invitation Only' by The Fabulous Thunderbirds. It's a really fine DVD, and easy to find. This song is on there but it's a full band version and (from memory) he's playing crossharp, I believe, not third postion. Whatever, it's a superb rendition with fantastic harp tone and timing.

On the Paul Jones Radio 2 show,Kim Wilson said he never open up his mics to look inside. Its not just the mic that getting his sound, Just Intonation tuning has alot to do with his fat chordal sound he gets.

That microphone is a very rare Astatic UT48. I've heard it's not the original element in the shell. It sounds like a dynamic or CR element. Sounds a lot like, in fact, like a very sweet EV630 dynamic element.

After being employed by Wilson for 13+ years, and knowing that he never used any effects (reverb included) during that time 1(992-2006), other than his amp, I feel safe in saying the mic and crystal have very little to do with his tone. I once asked him what he felt was the most important facet of a harmonica-player's sound. Kim said it was the ability to get a good acoustic tone. -----gene taylor
