Ukulele, anyone?


Just found this on Sat eve. Another example of why "stereotypes" are best suited for being blown up. This also blew my mind. Jake Shimabukuro is a master. Talent like this make me believe in God all the more. It is excellent. Hope you can access and enjoy. He has a web site. CD is called "Dragon". Going to get the CD for sure.

If this link doesn't work, just Google Youtube Jake Shmabukuro. See a video of him in Central Park playing a cover of George Harrison's, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps".

Good thread - I'm suprised nobody has mentioned Cliff Edwards, aka Ukelele Ike who was rather popular in the 20's and 30's; I have a few CD comps of his work and they are quite good if you care for early jazz/ragtime/vaudeville/saloon-type music, as well as a few off-color novelty pieces.
