"Please Please Me"

Backdated, archival post

---&---

This morning, I got to thinking about how "Please Please Me" has a guitar part doubled on harmonica (or a harmonica part doubled on guitar, whichever).  I knew I'd figured out it before, but I didn't remember it, so I had to figure it out again.  I would post an audio example, but doubling the guitar part with harmonica requires an E major harmonica, which I don't have (and the guitar part by itself wouldn't be too interesting).  So until either I get an E major harmonica or I learn an-other part to the song, this text post will have to suffice.  I made sure to write down the part, so I won't have to re-learn it a second time.
