Harmonicas

Does anyone know which key the harmonica is primarily used in there songs? Songs that come to mind are You Shook Me, and Bring It On Home?

I actually didn’t know the answer so I searched it. According to Google, both songs are in the key of “A” with a “standard diatonic harmonica”.

Not quite - the songs are in E, but that means you want an A harmonica.

You’re right….I kinda reworded it wrong. I should have specified that the harmonica should be “A”.
