I just got a hohner 270 chrom (it is very cool!), and started listening to more chrom blues. What are some good songs out there that I should hear?
To date I liked Teenage Beat - Little Walter Blues in the Dark - George Smith Carey Bell with Big Walter
Thanks!

check out william clarke's version of "the work song" james cotton's "23 hours too long".
chrom is seemingly made for 3rd position blues and can be utilized that way on a lot of songs.

George Harmonica Smith played blues chromatic in 1st position as well, but it requires you to use the slide more and you need to know where you are on it and three tunes that come to mind that he did this on are Chicago City, Boogie 'N' With George, and Monkey On A Limb. ---------- Sincerely, Barbeque Bob Maglinte Boston, MA http://www.barbequebob.com CD available at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/bbmaglinte

The Briar Patch by Gary Primich is a fun one. ---------- Todd, the conservatively liberal moderate of the moderators Eudora and Deep Soul

Gary Primich's "Texas Love Kit" is one of my favorite chromatic songs... I think he's playin a Bb chro in 3rd position.
I also love Norton Buffalo's chromatic playing... "Puerto de Azul" is a favorite.
