[Harp-L] Richard Hunter's Jazz Harp Book- "So What" solo

[Slidelicks@xxxxxxx]

My question is directed specifically to Richard Hunter, but also to the  
entire list in general.
 
I am working on the Miles Davis solo on "So What", using the transcription  
from Richard Hunter's "Jazz Harp" book. In a number of places, phrases  that 
use the notes C, B and A are notated using a Blow-Draw-Draw articulation  
without engaging the slide. Wouldn't it be more horn-like to engage the slide to  
produce the "C" and then use a breathing pattern of Draw-Draw-Draw?
 
Thanks for your insight.
