From: "Garth Dynes"
Subject: "All Blues" harp choice.

Thanks to all for your "spirited" replies to my question regarding
position choice for this music. I have tried all of your suggestions,
2nd in C, 3rd in F, and also on my C chromatic. Without wanting to
re-kindle the harp choice debate I can appreciate how any one of these
harps could be used to good effect on this tune. The easiest for me is
2nd position because I am more familiar with the note layout. However
3rd is also pretty intriguing (thanks Madcat). I want to explore tis
more. Both 2nd and 3rd positions present an opportunity to practice
accurate bends on the 2 and 3 draw. Just playing along with Miles on
the CD is great practice.
