Solo Harmonica Study 1, Ex. 1.10 (James Cotton's "3-Harp Boggie" Lick
Sun, 06/16/2013 - 06:20
Good morning David,
I'm currently working on Solo Harmonica Study 1. Ex. 1.10 (from James Cotton's "3-Harp Boggie") is indeed, like you said, a tongue-twister! (To really develop my ability to tongue-switch between hole 1 and 2 I've been warming up with Ex. 1.3 and 1.8, switching (or trying) back and forth between holes 1 and 2.) Doing it lip-pursed is no problem, but tongue-blocked... it's tricky.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Dutch Martin

Breaking Up Each Lick
I see I'm just going to have to break up each lick into bite-sized chunks, and master each "chunk." That seems to work best for me.

That's how I do it.
Sounds like a perfect approach.
