Looney Tunes outro on harmonica
Otis has been talking about a Surf Guitarist he heard busking in the underground walkway under London’s Science Museum. Apparently he was so good, everyone jumped in the soup for a slide.
A detail that caught Otis’s ear was the lick the guitarist added to the end of Secret Agent Man by The Ventures. It was the familiar outro to Warner Brothers’ Looney Tunes cartoons. He played it as a group of children were passing by and it turned every single head.
Sufferin’ succotash!
We’ve tried it on the harmonica and it’s all there! You might like to add it to your repertoire. Grab a C major 10 hole diatonic and make out in first position (straight harp).
5B 4D..4B 4D 5B..4D..5B
4B 4D..4D..4D..4D
4D 2D 3D 4D
5B 4B-5B-6B (….gliss to 10B)
Now show all your friends. Unless of course they’re hunting Wabbits. In which case, be vewwy, vewwy quiet.
