This is not a new video from me and I think I posted a link to it a long time ago. The overblow conversation carried over to Harp-l and I posted this clip. I think the obs I use during the acoustic part don't stand out as being odd notes. This was done on an F harp that had only been gapped.

The most out sounding parts, to me anyways, are the sloppy high end runs. Usually that's a strength of mine, but I got off somehow on this particular tune.

It might also be worth noting that this chords to this song are fairly major sounding compared to a traditional blues so I use the mixolydian much more liberally than if this were a minor slow blues.

Tell the guitar player the Roy Buchanan influence is
very nice. The OBs more obvious with acoustic playing
especially on higher harps this includes blow bends.
Electric playing covers better.
