A few years ago there was a thread posted by someone who wanted to learn to play a harmonica.

How’s it going? How’s it going with other beginners?

For me, I finally learned how to ‘bend’. I found the Cleartune chromatic tuner app on my phone to be helpful. But… I find I have little time to practice. So most of what I learned a few years ago needs to be re-learned. I did recently teach myself the melody part of _Re-enlistment Blues_ (what I can remember of it – I should find it on YouTube).
