Subject: ~I Live The Life I Love And I Love The Life I Live~

I assume it's Junior Wells playing harp in the Muddy Water's tune, ~I Live
The Life I Love And I Love The Life I Live~. In any case it is a classic
example of how harp could/should sound. It's the kind of song I'd never
bother ~tabbing out~ because it sounds pretty obvious- - -but now I have to
cover it and- - - I don't sound like that! [no wise cracks].

Maybe my old recording it slightly off- but, for instance, in the solo, the
first time he hits the 6 blow [It's an ~A~ harp, in E]: I can not reproduce
that! I finally figured out that he's hitting the 3-6 octave, but, still, it
sounds like he's bending something. Is that just his hand-cupped wah-wah
sound??? I really can not figure that note out. Does anyone have this solo
tabbed out? Any insights?

Thanks in advance,
Robb

P.S. I see Rod Piazza is going to be at Harvell's in Santa Monica. Pretty
small club. I used to work next door and I could imagine that to be a GREAT
venue for him. It used to be a real Dive, but even then it had ~something~
perfect for his kind of Blues. I'd check it out, you southern Californians.
