Whistle n blues

Interesting-- it looks like he’s playing the whistle transversely like a flute.

Over on the right, I found a link to Edgar Cruz playing a terrific classical guitar transcription of Bohemian Rhapsody. Check that out too.

I’m convinced there is an extraordinary potential for blues whistle. It helps to have a skanky whistle.

Hi
I’ve seen already that video ( it’s part of Martin Scorzese’s blues documentary) if I remeber correctly!
the old guy (Otha Turner ) is playing a kind of fife made from himself , it’s not a whistle ,
and the other guy it’s a very good blues musicians called :
Corey Harris , if you want an interesting blues album made from him , I would suggest you to buy Fish Ain’t Bitin .

Anyway I’ve tried to play this piece with a whistle and it sounds ok !

P.S. Otha Turner was a great simple man , with an extraordinary soul :

Rest in Peace

That has … disturbing implications.

Sorry for my bad english , perhaps I should have said made by himself .

I’m agree that a fife made from human … would be too much I guess

Manuel

this was cool thanks :smiley: adrian
