Neil Young's Heart Of Gold is one of the most recognizable songs on guitar and harmonica.

I have demonstrated the guitar part and we jammed through it in an earlier video: Heart Of Gold on Guitar and Harmonica.

In this video, I want to concentrate on the three harmonica solos.

In the video and in the harmonica tabs, which you can find under the Help Files tab above, the harmonica solos are explained as single notes.

Neil often is not playing single notes however. His style of playing is looser and leans to playing chords or more than one note at a time.

So in the harmonica tabs and in the lesson, the note that is shown is the main melodic note and the one to shoot for. If you end up also playing a note on either side of the target note, you should be golden.

Single notes are note required here but the tabs are supplied as single notes as guidance.

Have fun. Let me know how you make out. Leave a comment.

Peace. Stay in tune.
