In this book, rock'n'roll legend John Sebastian teaches you everything you need to play great blues harp on this unique CD lesson. Sebastian starts with proper technique (including breathing, tonguing, note bending, vibrato, attack, and more), then moves on to getting your first blues scales using the traditional "cross harp" technique. By the end of this lesson you'll be jamming with your friends in both major and minor keys, playing in both "waltz" and "straight" time, and understanding the chord theory behind some of the most widely used chord progressions in blues and rock music. You won't find a better introduction to blues harp playing anywhere!

Harmonica notation (blow and draw arrows) is included for each of the songs in this book.
 
About the CD: This great CD contains vocal instruction by John Sebastian along with demonstration tracks of all of the lessons in the book. The songs are broken up on the CD so you can start exactly where you want to and this makes this CD great for practicing.
