[Harp-L] Oh those overblows...



Ok, I am thoroughly confused. I've been pretty much happy to stick with simple blues stuff since I started, and never really interested in getting too fast or too fancy. But after getting turned on to Howard Levy and watching other amazing guys doing these overblows, it's kinda overblowing my mind. I didn't think I had much of a use for them, but now I'm irritated because I can't do it... HA! Well, I got it doing "something"... it's squeakin and honkin like a goose. Sounds like someone learning the clarinet. Just awful. Alright, so two questions, if someone would be kind enough to help a guy out: 1) When I blow in holes 8, 9, and 10 and bend the note DOWN, is that "overblowing?" 2)I assume that it's at least possible to overblow on an unmodified harmonica, yes? My harps are 90% Special 20's  Thanks folks -chuck
