This is Jerry McCain from 1965 playing a tremolo harp in 3rd position. He also recorded a few other tunes using one, one of these tunes was called Hot Nuts and another Woodpecker.

I also use a tremolo on occasion, for Raining In My Heart, using a Hohner 2409, key of C, played in G, and my approach is more of a cajun/zydeco like feel with more of an accordion like feel to it.

Anyway, enjoy!

nice, i have used it on black magic woman as a back up to the organ... but when our actual organ player is there, it is too similar to that sound...

really like the low licks around 1:50
