Book Reviews of Blues Harmonica Collection
Book Review: Best Blues Harp Book Ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
Most aspirring harp players start with an instructional book covering the basics of playing, notes, positions, a few simple riffs. Once you get past that you want to play some real blues and almost every instructional book teaches you how to play "Oh Suzanna" and "Frankie and Johnny". This book shows you in simple tablature how to play all of your favorites by Sonny Boy Williamson 2, Little Walter, Howlin' Wolf and more. Some songs are more difficult than others, but Love in Vain or Don't Start Me Talkin' are not much harder than Oh Suzanna and a lot more fun to play. That is the kind of thing that keeps aspiring players interested. If you have the cd's you can play along (it helps)but you can really be playing some good blues in a matter of weeks instead of mastering "Frankie and Johhny"
Book Review: Finaly a real bluesharp book with tabulature
Summary: 5 Stars
There are many good books that teaches you how to begin playing the bluesharp. They have some short harpsolos that you can learn to play, but they are usually to few. For a long time I've tried to find a book with bluessolos containing tabulature for harmonica and finaly I found this wonderful book called Blues Harmonica Collection. The book is not suiteble for beginners but if you've played the bluesharp for a while and know how to play bendnotes, this is probably a challange for you. There are chords, notes, text and harmonica notation of songs recorded by great harmonica players as Sonny Boy Williamson, Jimmy Reed and Little Walter for example. Many of the solos are difficult to learn but many of the songs are possible to listen to on record and that is a great help. But even if you don't have the records there are still many riffs and licks that you can learn from and practice. I have played the harmonica for a while but I've always had trouble with creating/building a nice solo - but this book has taught me alot about how some of the great harpplayers played their solos and fill-ins.
