Ho Hey_McKendryBrothers.mp4



I recently went to The Guitar Store looking for a Harmonica. I was inspired by the fact that my Grandkids had one & they thought I was pretty good on it...(they are not musically inclined as far as I could tell). By that I mean...none of them were playing "Blackbird" on their guitar at age 9 like Uncle Eddie. Although the 3 of them do play songs on the piano that I recognize...like "let it Be"...and something by some guy called Mozart...

Anyway, I bought a 7 pack of harmonicas that cost me $25.00. Every key under the Sun!

I'm still trying to figure out what harmonica key will fit with this song...A,E,C,G,D,F-?

any suggestions?

Very cool, GPea. "Ho-Hey" is in the key of "A". The other song/video from this session, the Bob Dylan song, is in the key of "G" and may lend itself to adding the harmonica. Now play along and there's a slot in the band waiting for you.

Pea, The tune is the same as "The Wheels on the Bus". Let it RIP!

I am well beyond "Wheels on a Bus". I can now do "God Bless America" & "On the way to Cape May"!
