Excellent work bro!! I love hearing that song on the harp..It's got a haunting and tear rendering affect when it comes through the harp.I like how you kept it straight foward and didn't ruin it by adding some wild blues riffs which don't belong in this piece, although blues is where my heart is, it just don't fit here..F.Y.I. Jay...you OWN this version, it's GREAT, it's unique, i did'nt hear any mistakes, technically there can't be any mistakes in music,it's art man! Great Job!!:-)
I recorded this about 2 years ago, and need to re record it, 'cause I have improved and changed this up a bit.
I lost my A key Special 20 and blew the reeds flat (or drew them flat I should say) in my Marine Band, so I need to buy some more harps if I want to continue.
hey jay, i have bought myself the hohner marine band as you suggested, and am learning this song, slowly getting there and hope to be as good as you soon, thanks again for the information, appreciated , keep up the good work jason
WOW!!! you are sooo good mate! i realy wann learn to play thsi instrument and this song, any tips? type of harmonica to begin with etc??? keep up the playing you are brill, regards jason UK

Very good job. I applaud your spontaneity on the bridge, especially the second time. Good clean playing, I like your version better than mine even. Keep up the good work compadre.
The Best play on Harmonica of Over the Rainbow in youtube, congratulations guy, you just played the song without adding much more effects than necessary.

Wow, thanks for the great review. You're gonna make my head swell and I'll start thinking I'm actually a musician or something. :-)
I really do want to re-record this (probably October '09) and hopefully it will sound a little better.

Thanks Jason (nice name).
All my tips would be bad advice since I sort of just made up my own style.
I like the Hohner Marine Band harmonica.
Some prefer the "Special 20" Marine band.
It has a smoother tone, but I prefer the standard one.

Thank you very much! That would be cool:) I'm not musical at all... So playing by ear would be very difficult for me.
