After three weeks I can bend one note.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bending The Blues (Harmonica) (Paperback)
I was a total absolute beginner when I met this book. After three weeks of practice following this book, I can draw-bend one note. I am still improving. This book is concise but very helpful for broad range of harpists from beginners to semi-professional. I am grateful for David Harp for this wonderful text.

This review is from: Bending The Blues (Harmonica) (Paperback)
I wouldn't mind finding out that the two CDs werent' included witht the book and even that they cost more than the book but the convoluted path you have to follow to obtain them is arcane at best. If you can buy the book on Amazon, David, why don't you put the CDs for sale on Amazon as well. Very disappointed with the whole process.

The book that learns you how to bend,

This review is from: Bending The Blues (Harmonica) (Paperback)
If you are a beginning blues harp player, this is the book that you must have to learn how to bend. My bending has improved very much after reading and practising this book. Also a friend of mine uses the book and his bending is improving too.
