I was looking at the Sheet music for "Yesterday" and I noticed that it can be played starting on draw 4 and using the 5 overblow (my)followed by the 6 draw bend (Troub). This overblow and draw bend call for a nearly identical vocal cavity setting and I find it very instructive to show how similar a draw bend is to an overblow.

Here is what it sounds like when I play it on a C Firebreath harp. Yesterday

Nice going with the clip STME58. This is a good idea for a thread too.

I just discovered the popular tune "Tequila" is a great way to get to know the 6OB.

The "A" phrase is all easy in 2nd: 4 6+ 6+ 5 6 5 6+ 4, 4 6+ 6+ 5 6 5 6+ 4

The "B" phrase: 4 5+ 6+ 6OB 6+, 4 5+ 6+ 6OB 6+, 4 5+ 6+ 6OB 6+, 6 6 6 6 6 6 4
