: iam a beginner about a year and want to play gospel music with the blues feel from the soul. i have accomplished little tho i have the desire. practice is my desire but i need someone who plays soul for some input. answer my prayer thanks. p.s. i play diatonic mostly lee oskar.
Greetings Frank,
Practice is the main thing... Listening to great players helps too... for gospel, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGee comes to mind. Darryl Mansfield too (more of a rock/blues thing).. Just A Closer Walk With Thee (CD) done by Sonny Terry & Brownie McGee is one of my favorites! Real soulful gospel blues... gotta have the blues before your appreciate the Good News!
