on 8/2/2008 Hey, Jim, do you read these? If you do, I was wondering if you could show off for us a bit and play the harmonica solo from the led zeppelin album 'Presence' (song-Nobody's Fault But Mine)? I would really like to SEE it played; see the movements and stuff...

on 8/2/2008 I have had a harmonica for, "I can't remember how long", years. I was always able to play about any toon I could hum but just recently realized how much fun it is and the mechanics of this art. Have just recently purchased a few new harmonicas to see which ones suit me best. So far I am partial to the Horner Golden Melody for a comfortable grip. I have small hands and get a fuller cave due to the shape. I am attempting to learn how to play some blues and have found your site exceptionally helpful, and I have been to many sites. I am forwarding this site to my 11 yearold grandson. I just gave him a littler Horner to learn on and he seemed to be very interested in learning to play. I believe in helping my grandchildren to develope in any creative avenue they take an interest in. I really helps with their self esteem, which I believe children really need in this high tec society today. Back to the lessons. I really appreciate your instructions, they are so easy to follow and understand. I will never be "great" but I really enjoy playing and I find it very relaxing. Thank You so much for sharing your talent and knowledge with us. Mary Jo

on 8/2/2008 Is there a reason for holding the harp in the left hand ?
It seems that all instruct to hold it this way.
It feels better for me to hold it in the right.
Is there any reason why this would be incorrect?
Thanks
