Jerry Portnoy joins me on episode 20 of the podcast.Jerry grew up with the sounds of Maxwell street in his ears. It took him a few years to pick up the harp, but when he did he enjoyed a tremendous career. Starting out with Johnny Young’s band, he had only been playing for six years before his talents landed him the greatest harmonica chair there ever was, playing with the Muddy Waters Blues Band. Jerry went on to play in the Legendary Blues Band and then with guitar legend Eric Clapton. He’s played at the White House, Carnegie Hall and the Royal Albert Hall. Select the Chapter Markers tab above to select different sections of the podcast (website version only).Links:Jerry's website: https://www.jerryportnoy.comTeaching:Jerry's Masterclass tutorial: https://www.jerryportnoy.com/lessons.htmlSonic Junction: http://www.sonicjunction.com/jerry-portnoyYouTube:Jerry playing with Muddy Waters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eu3CbGyKgiAJerry playing Misty: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qb2CZenVvp0Amps:http://www.victoriaamp.com/https://memphisbluesamps.com/mini-amp-docsPodcast website:https://www.harmonicahappyhour.comDonations:If you want to make a voluntary donation to help support the running costs of the podcast then please use this link (or visit the podcast website link above):https://paypal.me/harmonicahappyhour?locale.x=en_GBSpotify Playlist: Also check out the Spotify Playlist, which contains most of the songs discussed in the podcast:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5QC6RF2VTfs4iPuasJBqwT?si=M-j3IkiISeefhR7ybm9qIQPodcast sponsors:This podcast is sponsored by SEYDEL harmonicas - visit the oldest harmonica factory in the world at www.seydel1847.com  or on Facebook or Instagram at SEYDEL HARMONICASand Blows Me Away Productions: http://www.blowsmeaway.com/Support the show
