I picked up my C harp to play along with this song after just having purchased the CD. It seemed to work even though I discovered later that the song is actually performed in the key of D. That was cool! That was my accidental introduction into playing the blues harp in what is commonly called, 3rd position. It works well if a lot of minor notes are used in the melody. Seems to work here. At least for me it does. I mention Honner special 20 as my harp of choice. When you hear me say Special 20/Marine band, pay me no heed. Honner makes Marine band harps as well, but they have wooden combs and the holes are smaller than the special 20's. My blooper on the intro. Sorry.
