| All the other videos work. But not this one. For BigFishBlueFish: Key to the Highway is in A (at least our version is, Little Walter did it in G), and the slow blues is in G. Rock on. - CH |

| I just really like acoustic harp. It has so much more personality. Nothing is covered up. You actually have to be good to do it. And of course you do it really well. The same applies to guitar. Thanks so much for the acoustic videos. More acoustic, maybe piedmont blues, would be interesting to see and hear. Don't take me wrong...it's ALL interesting and great! You're a great player and teacher. Some of us just like to play...no aspirations to entertain. Thanks! |

| I'm making a note and will try to discuss that style. It's not my main thing--I"m more of an amped guy, and not a country blues guy--but I'll see what I can do. |

| Hi Adam- Sorry I missed you in Portsmouth. I live just down the road in Exeter, but didn't happen upon your Youtube lessons until yesterday. :( Keep up the good work, and thank you for sharing. More people than you know will benefit from your generosity, and quality bars around the world will be the better for it. Aloha, wl |

| These men are kings in their craft. I seriously wonder why no one in the video spares them at least one minute, just to listen to such great music. |
