Nice moody piece

I like those tough bends in the lower register.  All tongue blocked?

Your playing reminds me of the band Treat Her Right's harpman Jim Fitting.

Look up their song I Think She Likes Me on Youtube to see what I mean.

Nice.

Yes, all my bends now are tongue blocking. Sometime on the 1st draw hole I use pucker but I'm working to use tb also there. Should admit, TB opened a world in my playing!

Jam track

Hi Luckyharp:

Can you reveal where you found the jam track for this song? I can't find it anywhere. Thank,  John

John, I took the original

John,

I took the original track and used audio software Audacity with a free plug ins called "center pan remover".

This plug in removes what is exactly located on the center pan of the audio track. It doesn't work for the most of the songs but when you're lucky like in this case it worked :)

Thanks Robfraser! Your words are very kind, I will keep in mind to focus more on those bends :)

I liked it!

You clearly have a great sense of the song, as with your last upload. Another fine rendition luckyharp and I enjoyed playing along with you on this. My only criticism would be to apply a deeper bend on the 4 draw bent notes as it sounded a little weak here and there but, overall, it's a winner for me!
