David,

I'm lovin' the scale talk on your Tip of the Day. This, I think, is the key area for me to work on for what I'm shooting for with harp (I'm still remembering Jason Ricci's interview on the importance of scale work which mimics my own learning experience in rock music work).

Are you planning to do any videos on this stuff? I'm having a tough time grasping the context and would love some exercise work that makes sense (I used to have the same problem with your books, which is why I love that you started this site. I've always been an ear-and-eye-learner).

Yes, I am... though did you know it's already on the site in the form of the "Minor Playing" lesson?
