Mr. Barrett,

on the solo harmonica piece 1.6 you mentioned William Clarke used that turnaround lick often. I can't seem to find a recording or song off him doing that. Could you please point out a specific song?

I'd appreciate it, thank you very much for you great lessons!

I mean on the solo harmonica study you said in example 1.6 the turnaround lick that's featured you mentioned William Clarke used that lick often. Could you name me a song from one of his cd's where he does that?

thanks for your help

Gotcha... it was the rhythm I was speaking of... listen to "Pawnshop Bound" at 1:50 and 2:18.
