: : : The only song I ever wanted to play on Harp (beside Whammer Jammer-Magic Dick, J. Geils Band) was Road House Blues by the doors. Any idea what key harp he's on. I believe it's an "A". Could someone let me know. Also, if anyone has the basic tablature for it would be great. Thanks. Great Web Site by the way.

: Check out the Roadhouse Blues version recorded by Status Quo off thier 1970's album Piledriver. It is an extended version slightly heavier than the Doors but with better Harp. Its in the key of C.
Check out the John Sebastion blues instructional CD on it he talks about recording Roadhouse Blues with the Doors. He breaks the song down and tells how to play it. Kevins Harps has the CD
