Jordan,

I don't have the tab, but if you find a sound file for it at iTunes or Amazon.com, paste the link here, and I will tell you the key of a few of the songs which will make playing along and working out the tab much easier. The Springsteen harmonica parts are very simple. Once you have the correct harmonica in your hands, you should be able to work out most of the tab by yourself.

We do have "The River" tabbed-

   Thanks, Dave.
Speaking of the correct harmonica, the song seems to be in E-minor and I guess the solo is straight harp.
Are minor key harps common for straight harp? Every reference I've seen re: keys for cross harp, excludes minor harps. Just want to find out a little bit more about minor keys before I go buy an E-minor harp.
Thanks for the great site.
Best,
Jordan

Jordan,

Here's an explanation of the minor harmonicas-

I'm pretty sure that Bruce doesn't play anything other than standard 10-hole diatonics. If he's playing in E minor, then he's most likely playing 3rd or 4th position-

Let me know if this helps and the website says thanks for your comment.
