News	Uwe Warschkow has just completed his eBook about his experiences as a long time friend and pupil of Tommy Reilly. "Harmonica Lessons with Tommy Reilly" Tommy won a place on the concert stage for the humble harmonica. Uwe's memories of his friendship and lessons with Tommy Reilly are a must for all of Tommy's fans. In addition to providing personal details of Tommy's family and the musicians he worked with, Uwe gives the best insight into Tommy's approach to playing and teaching the harmonica. Many of the pieces of music which Tommy played are discussed as Uwe recalls the way Tommy helped him to interpret and perform the music. The eBook (PDF) - Harmonica Lessons with Tommy Reilly - is available in both English and German Language versions. It has 208 Pages, DIN A4, with many photographs and examples of the sheet music. Price: €35.00 You can get more information and see examples of pages from the book by visiting Uwe's web site - http://www.uwewarschkow.com Click here for the news archive
Discography	I have added a full discography of Tommy Reilly's recordings. It includes the many singles (78s and 45s), beginning in 1951, and the LPs, CDs, recordings with other artists and popular orchestras and Music Library Recordings.
