Thanks you. This is what this forum is all about. I'm an advanced beginner/beginning intermediate and found your vidio's very helpful. They add to and validate what other pros, Adam and Gindick have said. Use the 4 blow as a stepping stone note and every note is important. I particularly liked the color and difference in the I chord variations.
@Tweed Bliss is just the messanger here, although in his profile picture he looks a bit like the guy in the video. The guy in the video is Lee Sankey. ----------
Wow! Thanks for turning me on to Lee Sanky! Here's more proof that you don't need to play 100 notes per beat to sound good:
There are a couple of things I could tell him about using space, though. I'd tell him: 1. "Damn, man, you sure know how to use space, don't ya!!" 2. "I LOVE how you use space!!"
Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go watch some more Lee Sanky videos.

the notes from this posting says he is playing first position....is that for real?I have recordings of deford bailey,who came on last @grand ole opry in the late 30s and 40s,and first position was all there was at that time if crossharp was used then I guess it was being developed by masters like sonny terry or john lee williamson
/the notes from this posting says he is playing first position/
The two (instructional) videos I posted are (I think!) 2nd position on a C harmonica.
The live video posted by gene is (I think!) 1st position on a G harmonica until round about the 4 minute mark (when he picks up the bullet mic and switches to 2nd position on a C harmonica).
