Hi David,

is this valid also on accompaniment playing whihc i am the band ?
Thank you,

Hi David,
The slap is taught in level two, in the song Temperature. In Level 3, we learn Feelin' for the Blues, where I don't believe you mention the slap, nor can I hear you slapping during the song.
Is this because the emphasis is on another skill, or possibly because it is not appropriate for this song?
Could/should the notes be slapped?
Thanks David, for a great website.

Good question Homer. Walk With Me is more of a pretty melody, so we would not use slaps as much in such a melody. Slaps can be thrown in there, here and there, but generally not many slaps.
Thanks, David.
Merry Christmas to you and the Barrett Family.
Homer.
Thank you, you too Homer
Thank you
Hello Moran. Yes, the slap is your default way of playing a note as a blues harmonica playing, and yes, you'll use it for accompaniment playing as well.
