A demonstration of the arpeggios used in Stormy Monday. Yeah I know I sound drunk... and this vid is a little boring but its very useful if you want to step to the next level of playing.

The next time you find yourself at a jazz jam and call a blues, this is probably the style of blues you will play. Bb Blues in 11th on a C diatonic harmonica is the perfect position for a jazz jam.
The demonstration uses a C harp and and Eb harp.

From the SPAH blues jam on the final night.
Warren Bee is the baldy in the black suit. (looks like a hitman) I don't know the people ahead of him.
Tim Moyer is the next cat that I know, short hair in yellow.
David Fairweather is the one who sings.
Charles Spranklin is the gentlemanly looking gentleman in the suit.
I'll list more names as I get them.

This is a response to harp-l and the chatter about Christelle's version.
I've been building a bunch of pro-class harmonicas and I thought I would take the A harp I'm building for Zvi Aranoff for a little test run.
I should have put the cover plates but oh wel... LOL
Fire away with the critques.
This initially started as a call and response to Adam Gussow's query and then turned into something slightly demented including dogs and the enjoyment of toilet water. Enjoy.
BTW- everything was played on key of C Golden Melody
