I would like to play something that resembles the alto sax solo at the end of Sad Cafe by the Eagles.

I am trying to figure it out in 2nd position but I think it is going to be difficult for me to hit the bends consistently on a harp in the higher register, the original is in B and my friend sings it in C, so I have being trying to play it 2nd position on E and F harps.

Is 2nd position the best position for this song or will the notes lay out better in another position?

I can't overblow, but I also have a C chromatic in the house that I can try if I can't figure this out on the diatonic.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

The solo comes in after 4 minutes.

Sorry, when I click to play, a message says Warner Chappel has it blocked in this country on copyright grounds.
