5-Hole Instrumental 2s DownloadThe goal with this LEVEL instrumental is to continue to build upon the Level I & Level II “mini” songs with an added harp solo. I suggest 4 months of experience before attempting this. Everything except the chords should be played using tongue blocking and tongue switch to play hole #1 without moving your jaw if you can. Memorize the key, tempo and groove of the song . . .
Bird Instrumental 2 DownloadThe "Bird" Instrumental #2 is much in the flavor of Rice Miller (Sonny Boy Williamson #2). The big rhythmic chording is almost in a rural country blues style.

Even though the track has the counting already recorded, you MUST practice counting and signaling in unison with the voice on the recordings! It is always better to say the name of the soloist if you know it. Don’t say “guitar” if the soloist is another harp player or if the
guitar player doesn’t want to solo!
E-Z Instrumental 2s DownloadThe "E-Z" Instrumental #2 (s version has a harmonica solo) is a very common and "must know" melody in blues. It was inspired by Big Walter's 1953 recording on SUN records and he seemed to get his inspiration from a hit song by Ivory Joe Hunter. This builds on the Level II mini Instrumental.
