I have five harmonicas, all in different keys, and one "C" chromonica sitting on the little table just in front of my "sweet spot." When I have a nice familiar ballad playing on the system, sometimes I try to play along, or just accompany the other musicians.
If you want a challenge, buy a Lee Oscar B-minor harp. It is confusing at first, but you'll start to pick out some songs that you normally play. You can get a mean "Summertime" on it for starters ... then branch out from there. I love the ethnic sound of the B-minor harp.
Here's Lee Oscar playing the B-minor harp.

I've gotten so that I can follow along with most of it.

I am atrocious at it. :-)
