Harmonica is - Vocal Patches - - - Order of best so far 1. Piano man - C 2. Come on Eileen - C
Next 1. KC and Sunshine band and Kool and Gang both in C Baby give it up + or - = play note around + or below- D - 3b 3d (3d 4b) 3d 4d 5d- ... 4b 3b ... 4d 5b- 4d 5b-
Technique 1. Feel tongue blocking happening 2. Learn to hit right note straight away 3. Really know where you are drawing or blowing etc Post Malone 5th hole from right has tongue in
D - Avicii - B B A B D B - 5d 4b 5d- just slide tongue so nice and fast - don't move whole head or mouth etc E - Galway Girl - E with capo A - Wagon Wheel - 3b 3b 3b 3d 4b 3d E - Dire Straits C - Piano Man - learn other bits - la di da di di da ahh - 5d 4b 5b 5d- could possible use holes to left on some D - Valerie Baker St? Kool - Celebrate - C
Higher Love Come on Eileen 4 non blondes - E play that Esus4 bit over A major Uptown funk - F maj - can play some of the hits - good practise playing 3 fast note by not moving mouth but just the tongue
What I have noticed with some songs is if you put your lips in approximately the right area and either blow or draw appropriately it will work - such as Valerie where first part of horn line is BDB then next part is DBD Same to a degree with piano man
Technique for use 1. Make sure lips are nice and moist to stop the harmonica and holder moving too much when you have your lips against it 2. Feel your tongue against the hole and think of it as like blowing down the hole your tongue is touching (even though you are blocking that hole)
