Just sitting down to practice the harmonica, without any accompaniment is important. But it might sometimes be tedious. And, perhaps, your creativity could be limited. Sure would be nice to have some tracks to play along with.

And, actually, there are. All you've got to do is go to youTube and search for "Blues backing tracks." You'll find all kinds of stuff. You can even narrow the scope of your search by putting in the specific key you want. I recently found 18 tracks in the key of G. This is great, because whenever I want to just jam on my C harp, I can create a playlist of just those 18, and let 'er rip.

If you need jam tracks, youTube is a great resource.

That's hardly anything new for anyone here? Your use of backing tracks is somewhat limited. Get the free Audacity app and change your favorite BT to any key. You can also easily get BT from any Youtube video with free download app by downloading only audio in mp3 format, mara

Your information about the Audacity app is new to me. I thank you for that. The part about downloading audio only from youTube is old hat for me. I've been doing that already. However, since some people might view that as Pirating, I wasn't quite comfortable with recommending it to others.
