Interview with Harmonica Customizer Joe Spiers
Join me for an interview with respected blues harmonica player and customizer Joe Spiers. In this interview we speak of what's commonly done to a harmonica to make it play better, the levels of customization and the "do's and "dont's" of playing a finely adjusted instrument. Joe also speaks of being certified by Joe Filisko through the HOHNER AFFILIATED CUSTOMIZERS PROGRAM. This interview was held in August of 2012 in Dallas, Texas.
