Has anyone out there figured out how to play something acceptable for San Francisco Bay Blues. I could use some ideas. I am playing it, (well, sort of), in 2nd position and there are a couple of places where nothing is available, to my ear. Help ifn ya can.

SF Bay Blues in 1st position
Thanks UkuleleRob65. I have tried it some in 1st position and got about as far as I did with 2nd position. I will keep pecking away at it and as I progress it will get better.

If you have to play it in a set
If you have to play it this is the best I've heard it played on harp.
Dave Earl was also interviewed by Dave on this site if your interested.
mtnhank: The tune uses the II7, III7 and VI7 chords in the manner of some of the early trad jazz-style blues. Try the tune in first position and see what happens.
