Subject: Instructional materials

Hi,

I am interested in hearing about any instructional
materials that anyone has found particularly useful
and clear. I am new to the harmonica, but have an
extensive classical piano background, so I do not
want materials that are too elementary. It would
be helpful, I think, to use either a video or tape/CD,
so that I could have the benefit of example to work from.
My interests are in Blues using diatonic harps. At this
point, my bends are in good shape, so it is time for more
in depth work.
What are anyone's impressions of the following:

1) "New Directions for Harmonica" by Howard Levy
2) "Building Harmonica Technique" and "Complete Classic
Chicago Blues Harp", both by David Barrett. How do
these differ?

Thank you for any help.
