Juke And Other Blues Harp ClassicsTranscribed by Glenn Weiser
Little Walter's "Juke," and some of the other solos are from my book, Masters of Blues Harp, which is available from this site. However, the system of harmonica indications in the printed version differs somewhat from my original manuscript versions, which appear here. These have been provided for educational use only and may not be used for any commercial purpose.- GW

Little Walter's "Juke" Transcribed by Glenn WeiserFrom "Masters of Blues Harp"
Note-The first note of the famous opening phrase ("Le Riff") should be played as a 3-blow rather than a 2-draw. It has since been changed in the book.- G.W. Also, the second note should be an F#: 3-draw, whole step bend.
