Let's look a little deeper into these position licks...

1) 1st Position Lick: A Harp - 6+ 6+ 5 5+ 4+ 4+ = 5 blows and 1 draw

2) 2nd Position Lick: D Harp - 4 4 4+ 3 2 2 = 5 draws and 1 blow

3) 3rd Position Lick: G Harp - 6 6 6+ 5 4 4 = 5 draws and 1 blow

Again, play them and ponder on the pattern as you play them...
