start with only 1 overbow

as Jervis posted, Tinus does have an excellent site
http://www.overblow.com
http://www.tenhole.com

learn how and then only focus on this overblow:
6 OB gives you the minor 3rd note of the scale-BLUE NOTE #1!
this is the same note as (1 octave below) 3 draw bent down 1/2 step (1st 
bend)

this is a great place to start, especially if the player's theory knowledge 
is not really there.
small steps will make big gains (or some such Zen approach blahblahblah)
