Great lesson! I wanted to play that lick like that for so long. I was doing it in 3rd position because I could not bend until recently. This is much more bluesy and the way that Sugar Blue sounded. I actually heard Sugar Blue play that live a number of times over the years.

I'm sure someone has pointed this out to you but the key signature you have up is A major. A natural Minor has no sharps or flats.

itd be kinda hard, i think you probably mean the Led zeppelin version, that would be amazing, but its also played backwards isnt it?

George Lumsden forget that backwards stuff. When the Levee Breaks is a cool bluesy song, check out Zepparella covering it on KZbin

Tomlin Leckie Tnx! I'm doing it, but I'm not totally satisfied with my 3 draw half-step bend, especially at the end. Is it normal for someone who's been playing for quite a few years to have trouble getting it in pitch and controlling it?

Sounds great Tomlin! I’m just wondering what brand of D harp you’re using. I’ve been trying to play it on a Special 20. Is that okay?

I’m using a Special 20 Hohner. I cannot get the required C note (the 3 hole draw) without an intense bend. It doesn’t sound right.

Hey Tomlin, thanks for the video. I just got a D diatonic harp, but it doesn't seem to align with the notes. Any idea what's the matter? It's a East top 10 hole diatonic in D.

It's in the key of A minor and it is played on a D harmonica. Don't worry - your ear "muscle" will get stronger with practice. I certainly know mine did :-)

I would practice counting out loud in your mind. Eventually it will become subconscious :-)
@aldiun165 жыл бұрын
I thought it's ok I won't return it. still works fine almost. Then two weeks in I find out the 2 being a dud on the draw is wayyy more of a problem than I thought. I'm probably going cave and get a new D just to play this song while driving.. God damb Horner to hell im never buying another piece from them.
@NJKirchner6 жыл бұрын
Is it in A minor, or just second position A? I thought C would give you an A minor
@DominiqueP936 жыл бұрын
Norman Kirchner second position on a d harp gives you the notes of A minor and A major, depending on the notes you play. On a C harp 1st position, if you playing the major scale, but start on the A note (3whole bend or 6 draw), thats A minor also. its the natural minor, 4th position if you're talking harmonica
@NJKirchner6 жыл бұрын
Dominique Perreira that's a great reply and not what I expected. I'll need head scratch on that a bit and try it out some while I stare at some music scales
@DominiqueP936 жыл бұрын
Norman Kirchner no prob. there this site called "www.angelfire.com/tx/myquill/Harpscript.html " which is a scale generator for harmonica. Easy to learn to use, Very useful for seeing which scales are available, the relationship betwen notes and all the modes if you understand them. Happy Harpin'
@nickchaser6 жыл бұрын
I think the key to getting A minor is the half step bend on hole 3 draw. This bends the C# down to C. In a recent video, Tomlin recommends an App, ‘insTuner' - this helps check the accuracy of your bends (highly recommended).
@TomlinHarmonica6 жыл бұрын
Hi Norman, positions are not major or minor. The notes you choose to play in a specific position are Major or Minor. So for example, I can play A major or A minor on a D harmonica but I can also play A major or A minor on an A harmonic in 1st position. Hope that helps - positions are mystical :-)
