Re: "Stormy Monday" help

[Mojo Red <harplicks@xxxxxxxxx>]

Jp,

I usually go with a good ole standard C harp in 2nd
to do Stormy Monday in G. There's a lot you can
play that sounds great over those sexy, jazzy
changes. A great tune to really present your tone.
Watch your bending though, and have fun!
