@andypshutt Glad you liked it. To move from diatonic to chromatic is a step up although not an easy one for a biginner. Because you have double reeds, you have to blow twice as hard but you will be able to play any tune because you'll have shaps and flats which you don't have on a diatonic. Good luck anyway, it's all a matter of practice.
@petangers1 Yes I did play banjo and guitar at The Half Moon Putney with my band The Snap Syncopators. That was a while back now though. How did you know that?
Been trying to find you for ages. Great music, truely inspirational, keep going man, NO i'm not on drugs, just don't make them like this anymore. Cheers Xorros. I feel humble and at peace with everyone listening to this.....
Thanks selloutasaurus, This harmonica is a 16 hole Hering, only available in the key of C. But Hohner does the 12 hole Super Chromatica in 10 different keys of which I have them in G and D. Hope this helps.
i LOVE that piece of music -reminds of NYC which i also love. I wish i could play that down in the subway and hear that echoing in the tunnel. Nice job on that X!!
Thanks Woody, although I don't think Toots Thielmans Would be very impressed, as my version - which is a copy of the John Barry score - is fairly simple compared to Toots' inprovised jazz version which is absolutely brilliant. Thanks for your comment and I'm glad you liked it.
Fab rendition, just learning harmonica and have a chromatic 48 in c. Could I play this with what I 've got? Would love to be able to. Keep up the brill work.
Hi guicifer, I'm afraid I don't have any tabs. I just play by ear - I hear a tune, then I just copy it. I'm sorry I couldn't help you. Good luck from, Xorros
can this be played on a non-chromactic (golden melody key of A)?

Hi! Wonderful rendition. I am just learning the diatronic harmonica and would like to know if it's an easy step "up" (or down) to the Chromatic?
