My buddies over at Solid Air Records have a cool new CD out - Greg Hawkes (keyboardist for the Cars) recorded a CD called "The Beatles Uke" which "blends multiple ukuleles and studio wizardry to create magical interpretations of Beatles classics". Everyone i've played it for loves it and it's got a lot of songs you don't normally hear like "Piggies", "Blue Jay Way" and "Honey Pie" - i have to admit that i am totally unfamiliar with these tunes.

Check it out at http://mitchchang.blogspot.com/

"There's a fog upon LA
and my friends have lost their way..."

Surely the best blending of innocuous lyrics and ominous music ever. I love this song. I'll be sure to check out the CD. Thanks.

Or I may be asleep."

Real spooky, George!

Ah the Beatles. I’ve probably said this before, but George Harrison’s first instrument was the ukulele. McCartney also plays one, and I believe took up the trumpet as a boy. Mr Lennon’s first instrument was a banjo.
I can’t help but wonder where it all went wrong and think how good they might have been…..

Definitely a cool CD, but not new...it was released last November.

My goal is to be able to play as well as people think I can.
