But that's not blues, even blown on a harp, and the cheap tonality changes are an insult to music! :x

My chromatic harmonica broke while I was attempting to learn this. :(

I recall watching an interview with Larry Adler, who recounted meeting George and Ira Gershwyn as a young man. George asked him to play the Rhapsody in Blue but Adler wasn't good enough to hack it at the time, so he said "I don't like the rhapsody."

Ira wisecracked, "Say, George, we've found somebody who doesn't like the rhapsody!" :)
