Anybody got any tips on how to play with the harmonica rack? Iv got a way of doing it where i sort of let the left side of the rack dig into my left shoulder a bit which helps to stabelize it a bit,but i still cant blow it like the DOCTOR does! Anybody got a different way?

Cheers friends

check out the gifted blues singer/guitar & harp player Eddie Martin who uses a rack to great effect.
He is from UK

Over the next several weeks I'm going to upload two videos that I made of Jimi Lee. He's one of the greatest, most soulful rack-mounted harp players you've ever heard. Stay tuned!

Check out Paul Oscher, a former harp player for Muddy Waters, now a muti-instrumentalist who often plays harp with a rack. Go to Google and type-in Paul Oscher for some videos of him playing guitar and harmonica with a rack.
