I am amazed that you were able to transcribe that one, cuz he is ripping that intro out. That is **Whammerjammer** by the J. Geils Band, and it is some truly amazing harp.

More:

BtES2 - This following program is dedicated to the city and people of San Francisco, who may not know it, but they are beautiful, and so is their city. This is a very personal song, so if the viewer cannot understand it, particularly those of you who are European residents, save up all your bread and fly Trans-Love Airways to San Francisco, USA. Then maybe you’ll understand the song. It will be worth it–if not for the sake of this song, but for the sake of your own peace of mind.

BtES3 - A year ago today, it was when you went away, but now you come back knocking on my door, and you say you’re back to stay, but I say…

BtES4 - My lord and lady: we have fortuitously happened upon these strolling players who will provide you with their goodly tunes whilst you set about…[fades]

BtES5 - “…bottle of claret for you if I’d realized.”  
“Well do next time.”  
“I’d forgotten all about it, George, I’m sorry. Will you forgive me?”  
“Yes.”  
“Bitch.”
