The purpose of this book is to bring to the beginners and confirmed harmonica players an encyclopedia of licks from which they can learn and use while improvising alone or with a band. The great harmonica players often mixed spontaneous original ideas with well-known licks to create new solos.
Most of the time licks and riffs are “borrowed”, adapted and changed into new ones. It is rare when someone comes up with a totally fresh approach without relying on the tradition meaning blues phrases, riffs, and scales.The following licks were inspired by musical improvisations of blues legends such as Junior Wells, Sonny Boy Williamson II, Little Walter, Big Walter Horton, James Cotton, Howlin’ Wolf and Jean-Jacques Milteau. 100 Easy Blues Harmonica Licks will work with any 10 hole diatonic harmonica in the key of C.

Minor Blues Harmonica includes introductory material for new players on holding the harmonica, achieving a single note, and common techniques that sound great on the instrument.
Not-so-new players will enjoy learning new songs at their current skill levels. Intermediate players will benefit from learning to play in 3rd Position to broaden their options while performing.
Players at a more advanced level will learn to play in minor keys–a challenge for harmonica players, but less difficult in 3rd Position.In this book we’ll explore the killer sounds that 3rd Position has to offer, focusing on the following areas:
1) New players will learn to play single notes and moving around the harmonica with good tone.
2) Learning to improvise in 3rd Position in an intuitive way, even for beginners.
3) Learning “study” songs to play by yourself and at blues jams. These songs also provide valuable licks to help develop your own improvisational vocabulary.
4) An overview of music theory to help you understand what’s technically going on. (This is at the end of the book, so it’s not required in order to play the examples.)
5) A chapter for the more advanced players to learn how to play the lower octave of the harmonica in 3rd Position (requires good bending skills).
You’ll need a C Major Diatonic Harmonica for this book and recording. Recordings of all the examples are played by author David Barrett. Includes access to online audio.
