INTERMEDIATE / ADVANCED INTERMEDIATE. A QuickTime video tutorial focusing on Cissy Strut, a New Orleans funk classic, adapted for harmonica by Adam Gussow of Satan and Adam. Technical challenges here revolve primarily around timing and emphasis, since the funk groove requires precise off-beat stresses.

Harp key: F

Note: a PDF tab for this song is available at the discounted rate of $1.

Note 2: Gussow discusses not just the original recording by The Meters, but a cover version by New York City bluesman J. C. Doo-Kingue. Both versions make excellent jam tracks to accompany this lesson and can be downloaded from iTunes.

Running time: 17:52
