Seven Heaven?
Hi Liam,
Can you expound on the 7th chord, the dominant 7th, the flat 7th? I'm kinda lost when I hear you mention.
Thanks

I think a You Tube would be a jolly good idea! And pretend that you're attempting to explain it to the brain of an amazingly simple and naive person such as myself so I can go up the down staircase of scales without falling over! I'll be all eyes and ears when the vid appears. Thank you, Your fellow harpster

Overblows! Wow. I'm going to practice blowing out candles after blowing up balloons! Point is I should be a windmill to play the harmonica like Liam Ward!

Hi Liam When I'm on something like Easy(Big W) I'm not thinking about scales, arpeggios or chords, or 4/4 signature, just trying to sound clear notes without flubs. When Big W composed do u think he was? Call me Curious Yellow. I have learned about the I, IV and V chords, heard about the 7th in passing only so far.

Notes:
How do arpeggios related to the major scales; the latter have six notes, the former 4, correct?

Deeper and deeper
If I put the harp deep in my mouth it's harder to isolate a hole
Am I shallow?

It's easier to do blow octaves than draw(I can't tie a cherry stem with my tongue either).

A-
Hard to hit A on 3 full draw usually goes right to G#. Is that bad?

Yes The 3 draws are quite subtle The whole process is very much about the breath. Wish I could spray away my bad breath and get the perfect air flow!!

I have trouble with the 45 double stop, bent or not. 34 no problem. Strange or not?

I can blow 4&5 together but then if I bend doesn't work trying a glissando to the 2 draw as in your intermediate solo;

How do you get the "big" sound out of the 2 draw consistently? Tone as it were. Or just running out of air?

I have to concentrate dropping my jaw on hole 2 draw to get a clean G otherwise it tends to bend easily into a F#.

If I can do one line fairly decently from a cool song like All Because of You-Big Walter-I am content. On the other hand not getting through an entire solo without a misstep makes me a crybaby. What I should learn is that making a mistake like drawing a 2 instead of a 3 will not land me in harp jail!
