snare drum effect while chording

Hi David:
i listen to your snare drum effect in which you emphasize the effect which gives a certain rythem. in addition, it is very light and your mouth is slightly off the harmonica. my recordings do not sound like your and your is so rythmic and cool. like you said like a snare drum.
Can you point me to where either in the tongue block or soloing section or both which best describes the rythem and mouth position while chording.
thank you

Hello Jim. I'm glad you like the effect. I'm sorry to say that the only time I mention it, and I don't spend much time on it, is the section that you mention, in the solo harmonica studies. If you haven't already done so, I recommend you look into Joe Filisko's lessons on the site... he spends more time in the area of special effects with the hands and head tone. Though he doesn't cover this exact area of focus, you covers ideas like this. Sorry that I couldn't be of more help.
