Re: [Harp-L] Who's Been Talking

["Rob Paparozzi" <Chromboy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wolf is in Em on a E Harp in 1st Position on his orig recording, (I think on 
the London Sessions they may be in Am). I agree much mmore can be done tho 
with 3rd on this tune....

best,

JP-
I guess I deleted the post that had the link to the HW rendition of the 
song. I looked on youtube and listened to the tune by HW from the rockin 
chair cut as well as a cut by Robert C. These two cuts were in Em. The best 
I have to offer is to suggest an A harp. I'm stumped on the position though. 
You can get the lick in the low register starting in hole #1 draw and get 
the lick in the next octave starting in #4 draw. I guess it's 2nd position 
minor dorian??? sub/dorian???

As Rob stated, it can be done in 1st pos, however, using an E harp does not 
allow for the lower register lick as is done on the Robert C version.

What key is Mr. Burnett playing in? I found a youtube with Burnett? but 
there was no harp. This one was also in Em.
