Jam away your blues with this collection of professionally recorded blues backing tracks for C diatonic harmonica. I really hope they help you to improve your knowledge of grooves and your confidence at improvising.
 
This collection includes:
 
40 mp3 tracks of professionally recorded acoustic guitar
10 grooves in various keys and speeds
Easy-to-follow explanations of each groove
Simple guitar chord charts
 
NOTE: You will need a diatonic harmonica in the key of C (e.g. Hohner Marine Band or Special 20).
 
These tracks are all intended for C harmonica. Most are in the key of G, meaning you’d be using your harp in 2nd position. You will also get the opportunity to practise your 1st and 3rd pos playing.

The collection includes the following tracks. I have tempo-shifted the files so you get to practise them at various speeds:
