Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Blues Harmonica Collection

Book Review: A solid collection of pieces.
Summary: 4 Stars

The printing is clear and the tablature fairly unambiguous, and there are some good songs in there.

It's also useful that full lyrics and melody are there (what can you do between harp licks but sing?) and I'm glad to see there are a couple of pieces for a harpman backing a singer too.

However, I'm cannot be sure of the accuracy of the pieces; very few of them match the recordings I have of the tunes featured. In most cases, this is probably because I have a different version from the one David McKelvy transcribed, but I can't check as he hasn't included any detail on the recordings he used.

I'd love to be able to give this 5 stars, but I just can't without knowing it's accurate. I'm probably being generous giving it 4, simply because there are so few books for us harp men out there.
