[Harp-L] newbee question

["Abner Galdos" <cdgaldos@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ok I'm looking at buy some books, "dummies" and Gindric. trying to find Steve Bakers play along.
I think what I really want are cd/s that I can jam with I have The Idiots guide to playing and "First Lessons Blues Harmonica by David Barrett"
I am also a bit confused on the harps.
right now I have 

Marine Band C
Hohner Special 20 C
Lee Oskar Natural Minor Gm,Cm,Fm,Am
Lee Oscar Melody Maker G,A,C

family members bought these for me this past xmas... I had no say...
and they had no idea. A friend that plays the guitar gave them the keys to buy...
so
Question:
what key should I get:
as I said I love the blues, county and a little bit of rock and roll.
Question:
Brand, I know this is so personal. The problem I see is Hohner has different models with different numbers IM looking at them and like a deer staring at a head light. I like both Hohner and Lee Oskar and I know that there are other brands...
I'm willing to spend $30 on each and up. don't worry about the cost I can buy some now and more later... I'm having a lot of fun hearing different songs finding the key and then jamming. my wife will tell me if I got it or if I'm off key... we were up till past midnight playing and singing.. after 28 yrs of marriage this is awesome..

Question: CD's that I can jam with such as "Steve Bakers play along " that I cant find.

man you cant believe how much fun I'm having. Thank you all for being part of it.
