Yeah, anything by dylan really. Try all along the watchtower, knockin on heavens door (live version...). Buy bob dylan's MTV unplugged album - that would be your best bet, there is some brilllient harmonica on that.

And LOTS laugh.gif I add harp to lots of stuff I do solo to "fill in" the sound. (As well as electric bluesband stuff of course).

Just depends what you like. Dylanish stuff isn't too tough (straight-harp simple blow-draw stuff). Bluesier stuff (cross-harp draw-based, with bends and warbles, etc).

His name is Phil Wiggins. That's who taught me how to play originally about twenty years or so ago (of course I'm not as good as him!), with Paul trying to sharpen me up on the rack and a couple of others trying on electric over the years. You'd think with such good teachers I'd be a little better than I am! laugh.gif

A good song with harmonica and guitar is "Flying Horses" by Dispatch. There are some other songs by Dispatch that have a harmonica in them, but I can't think of there names.

Try some dar williams! I do Iowa, capo 2nd fret and play the chords, and use a harmonica in the key of A. Works nice... Would work a lot better if I was any good laugh.gif
