    I already heard it, yes I liked it now it finished the song, here from what I realized it seems that Jagger uses a harmonica in G but low, Harmonica G low

    @SingingWomble: G low, F low and A low I am missing for now, there are basically 7 that exist low. Here in Mexico, they hardly use them, rather they don't use them, for Mexican music they use a harmonica that Honner edited in a special edition between the years 1930 and 1950 called El Centenario, with it they still play Mexican melodies by interpreters who still have possession of this harmonica, but the low harmonicas we are talking about here in Mexico are hard to find who play it or know about it, now, I also play in the street and then there is not enough to buy the harmonicas low that are only bought by brand and by line.

    Sounds great Richard. :) Maybe you or thx1138 can add a little reverb in the studio settings to blend in better in the mix.

    It really sounds wonderful, thank you for thinking of me. I recorded one last minute take, only changed the reverb a little and tried to find a good mix for it all. I don't mind if you keep it as it is now, take my mix or do your own fresh one. :)

    @CarolGrand, @thx1138, @Bob, @hector, @tonysurf70, if any of you feel something should be louder or softer in the mix, please do tell. Mixes can sound quite different on different speakers. :)
