Today's blues harmonica lesson will teach you to play 'Hit The Road Jack' made famous by Ray Charles and many others. I hope you enjoy the lesson! Click here for the harp tabs to this song

'Hit the Road Jack' was written by the lgendary Percy Mayfield and was famously recorded by Ray Charles. It was a No. 1 hit in the US, won a Grammy, and became one of Ray Charles' signature songs.

For our purposes, it works really nicely played on a harmonica in third position, and we'll be playing on a key of C diatonic harmonica.

I hope you enjoy the free harmonica lesson and tabs. Thanks for watching!
