Greetings Xavier,

As it turns out you're a freaking genius. The whole solo IS on a D harp. So
there it is. ~I Live The Life~ is a D harp [third position], in E. I
wouldn't have even reached for anything but my ~A~ without you. Thanks.

As to ~Position~ stuff. It's easy to mis-speak when it comes to all that,
no? I mean, truth is, I'm always in the same damn ~key~ as the guitar is. I
just sometimes use a harp labeled in that same key- - -more often one that
is 3 more steps up- - and sometimes 1 step down.

Thanks again,
Robb
