Hi there, I am working on a project for my music class and I have to present a musical instrunment, give history blah, blah. Anyways I got the harmonica, and I instantly thought of Cowboy Bebop. Does anyone know a good song from Bebop that uses the harmonica? If you could list the song name also that would be cool that way I could get it from itunes. thanks!
Till next time,

"Spokey Dokey" and "Digging My Potato" come to mind.

Yes, "Spokey Dokey" (track #3 of OST 1) is as "harmonic" as it gets. I once had it played in a music class of mine and it was mistaken for Blue Grass at first. Use this piece if you want something that relies on the harmonica a lot.

As for "Digging My Potato" (track #16 of OST 1), it has more of an actual rhythm to it, so the drums and stuff tend to stick out more. Not to mention it's a pretty short track (2:24 as compared to Spokey Dokey's 4:04).

hi i also play harmonica and have been for about 3 years now it was bebop actualy that got me into playing it. the best thing u can do is just listen to the tracks and try to re play them in your mind then in your intrument. last harmonica blues which is featured on sympathy for the devil episode is a really superb song and is easy to pick up. and when mastered which will take about a day it sounds superb as a solo. maybe put in a little drum beat in the back ground as the song does also. but this is the song to go for i think.

hope it goes well and good luck.

Awesome so very awesome. Thank you so much for the information, because if I didn't find anything for this instrument, I would of had to do the orcarina, which I was going to do for Zelda. But that would of been a pain. Thanks to Space_cowboy64, Tony K., omnistry, I give you each some dap!
