[Harp-L] Re: Bass Harmonica Books

[MilwHarmonica@xxxxxxx]

Hello, Bob.
 
Here are two of my favorite bass harmonica method books. I've been playing  
bass for about 11 years, and it's great fun. If you are a bass guitar player,  
your learning of the bass harmonica will be easier than a person who  has no 
musical instrument background.
 
Learning to play the Bass Harmonica, by Judy  Simson-Smith(1984), Simson & 
Smith Publications, 2398 Southern Rd. 
Richfield, OH 44286-9520. Phone: (330) 659-6458. The Simpson & Smith  
Publications are sold at J.L Dyer Music, 337-S.16th St.,
Otsego, MI 49078. Phone: (616)694-6052. Simpson-Smith Publications also  
offers superb books written for the chord harmonicas.
 
The Bass Harmonica, Vol. I and Vol.II, by Robert Bethiaume  (1985). The 2 
books include an audio tape for each book. Book 1 is for  beginners, and book 2 
is for intermediate to advanced players.The  books were self-published by 
Berthiaume, but they are now available at  Danny Wilson's website: 
_www.bassharp.com_ (http://www.bassharp.com) . 
 
Good Luck, and keep playing Bass.
