St. Louis Blues

Thank you to everyone who has provide suggestions for learning to play jazz and blues. As everyone suggested, I've begun working on chord progressions and arpeggios. I'm also learning "St. Louis Blues." I weaving through the notes, trying (not succeeding) to gliss, and playing in all three registers (four including throat tones) . Overall, I'm having a great time and everything is working pretty good. I've run into another problem, though. Somehow, I've started playing harmonics. It's a squeak, I know, just not my typical loud squeal. I can actually hear the harmonics. Any help on how to resolve this new problem is most welcome. My gear hasn't changed: Vandoren M15, Rue Lepic 56 3.5+, Rovner dark ligature. Thanks again for all the suggestions. I've copied them on a cheat sheet that I keep on my music stand.
