Just wondered if you'd be interested to see the biggest Blues Tab list I've been able to find on the web.

Sorry if you knew about it already.

Went to that site and didn't like it. Here's why. Looked up My Babe the Willie Dixon song covered by Little Walter. The tabs show that you should be playing along with lyrics as they're sung. That isn't the way Little walter plays it. Those are the tabs I'm interested in, when Little Walter takes his solo. I see this happen all the time when sites advertise "100's of harp tabs". If the song has a harmonica break in it, they never give you those tabs, it's always how to play the melody that the vocalist is singing. It drives me crazy, this site seems like more of the same.

Here is a site for some decent tabs. There are not very many songs, but the tabs are for the harmonica, not the vocals.

I like to use tabs like these as a starting point, then I tweak the tabs based on what I hear.

Understand your comment Honkin but lets face it on a number of blues songs you'd only get a little taka taka wah at the end of each verse and you wouldn't need a tab for that.

There are those of us out here who just play alone without jamming with a band and these sorts of tabs can still be quite useful.

I appreciate your requirement for a more in-depth analysis of a tune but I feel you may need to pay for information like that.

Hello out there. Anybody know is there a tab sheet for Christo Redentor anywhere. I'm new to the forum and the world of harp but do have the bug. Thanks for any consideration.
