Subject: Re: 3 draw bend

Somebody asked about the importance of 3 draw bend, and how is the bend
accomplised. I deleted the senders name before I could comment.
IMO the four notes that can be played on 3 draw are essential to the blues.
Try
articulating Key for the natural draw note. Koo ( which seems to be frontal,
like through the teeth ) for the quarter bend. Koh for the half bend and Kah
for the three quarter bend. On the LO its simple. On most Hohners its a little
more difficult. but in either case it takes lots of practice.......Kenny
