Hot Cha: originally done on sax by Junior Walker and the All-Stars in the key of Bb. You'd need an Eb harp to play along with the original. I demonstrate it in the key of F on a Bb harp. I like the tonal range and the greater warmth of a Bb for harp instrumentals. This is a sixteen bar form rather than the standard twelve bar that we've been doing. I don't play the exact notes he plays but adapt the melody theme.
