Fun Fact, Melodicas are toys

Well, until about 40 years ago when Phil Moore Jr. used one on his album Right On, giving the melodica a legitimate spot in music.

  1. Melodicas have long been known as toys, but also as you pointed out have made their way into mainstream music. They are a great instrument to teach children and students about music. There are high-end melodicas (melodions) used by professionals too. They are fun and relatively inexpensive. I haven't heard Phil Moore Jr's album but will go check it out. Thanks.
