Re: [Harp-L] Bluegrass Harp and the Dixie Flyers

["Cara Cooke" <cyberharp@xxxxxxxxx>]

Andrew:  You are welcome to some of the instructional material on my webpage
(http://harmonica2.tripod.com) -- scale exercises and tab and such.  I aim
my stuff towards bluegrass, but the exercises work well for many music
genres.  You can still work the scale exercises if you learn to play
positionally, too.
