James, Check out "Rufus", by Buddy Greene. Deep River Blues would be great tune to learn. I think Robert Johnson's song,"Walking Shoes" is on this recording....
Hello Leo. Your playing is superb. But your web address doesn't work. You are one of the best players I heard. Totally unique! Good luck man. ... [Non-text...

The world of bluegrass is filled with tunes and songs that match that description. For what purpose are you learning the song/tune and with whom will you play...
Hello everyone, My name is Irwin and I'm new to the group. I am a musician that has dabbled with the harmonica off and on through the years. This year I bought...
Breath conservation is pretty much the same between vocals, woodwinds, brass, and harmonica. I expect that, because you are not playing something more...
Nice job, Leonardo! Thanks for sharing that. Please take a moment and visit my websites (below). Hopefully, you will find something there that you will...
From: harpbluesimon << I'm trying to play some Chinese fiddle (Erhu) tunes with my blues harp. http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/ljl6gi92Nk8/ >> Beautiful! ...
Keep up the good work. You've developed a nice touch that blends well with the music. Try to relax a little more when you are playing the faster parts so that...
Hi Cara, Thanks!As for the faster part,I have some problem with my harp as well.I narrowed the gaps for easy overblow,but narrowed gap gave slow reponse.Last...
I listened very hard, when the streaming audio let me, but I didn't hear any Bluegrass, but lots of erhu, ( Chinese 2 string " fiddle" for those not in...
Haven't posted for awhile, been busy sinning and etc!! Anyway on the 31 of March; I recieved from D. Lovatto, a good friend of mine, a Circle tuned harp from...

Steve, I haven't bought a circular yet from Rupert but plan to. I will look into that feeling of a tight harp. I bought two of the Solist harps. Silly me, I...
I wish that I would have said that!! Not to sure what you said but it sounded damn good to me ;>)..No, seriously like you said, it's just a matter of learning...
I'm trying to think of something that you could compare in your mind to what I'm talking about. Listen in your mind to a viola strike a long note, and then...
I was introduced to the circular tuned harmonica by Barbara Butler who uses them in Celtic music. I will probably buy one eventually just to play with it and...
You might be surprised at yourself as to how well you adapt between the harmonicas once you get used to the situation. Everyone is different, but I bet you...
I just bought a Seydel Zirk to try out. I'd not be surprised to find that it's possible to switch back & forth between that tuning and Richter. Back in the...
Steve, I guess I would like that tightness sound. Although I do love a Viola timbre too, I like the violin much better. It would seem that the Circular harp...
In a combination of simple syrup and sour mash bourbon, then the next time you have a bar-B-que,, throw them in!!!..;) Make your steak taste great. Speaking of...
