I just bought a Hohner 364 (key of C) and would like to know of some cool songs to learn other than Bye Bye Bird. Thanks in advance

I bought a 365 in C after being inspired by the sensational Hakan in this video a few years ago. No songs per se, however a few nice ideas to play around with.

All by Sonny Boy II:
I Don't Know
I Can't Be Alone
Unseen Eye

Also try what Dennis Gruenling does and try to cop some baritone sax solos with it.

Dunno if they are cool (and still works in progress) but here are a couple of things I have been working on.

Good luck.

Sunny Blues

Callaloo

Using a Seydel 1847 Low C, BTW.

Hondo: I have dozens on my site but you would have to sift through about 5,600+ songs and like you I have no idea of what the titles are or where they are. Here are a couple of recent ones. Walter

Country State of Mind- Hank Williams Jr.
Your Cheatin' Heart- Hank Williams Sr.
Both of these sound good in Low C. Not saying that is the key the original song is played in. The Guitarist I play with likes to playing C mostly because it is easiest on his voice. The two songs above sound better (melody in 1st position) in Low C when we play.

This is another take on Bye Bye Bird that I like a lot--it's in low D--but I find them pretty much interchangeable. . .
