'Mary Rose' ... my first song on uke and iPhone!

[Greeny]

My first uke composition, enhanced with cello, string ensemble, trumpet and flute via the ThumbJam App. All recorded on the MBR. Just a simple little strum-along.

The song is about Henry VIII's Mary Rose ship that sank in Portsmouth harbour. Tele Savalas reminded me about it recently, lol.

I've fallen in love with the uke! And it looks like I'm not the only one on here. I blame henwrench, lol  

I have the 'Les Paul' type of Mahalo...

giving me gas greeny want one o those ukes looks cool as. loving the thumb jam app had a shot of tharek's need to move into the 21st century and get one o them too.

bloody magic, getting that crowded house feel from you hear especially now there is a uke in the mix.

[Hook]

Great song, the quality of those sounds from your iphone is quite amazing! There better than most synth sounds and your arrangement here is really impressive. When you use your phone how do you connect to your MBR?
Your Uke looks and sounds awesome, mines just plain and cheap...I'm coveting again!
Great job Greeny, glad your back!

[Greeny]

When you use your phone how do you connect to your MBR?

Just a jack-to-jack lead from the headphone socket of the iPhone into the Line-in on the MBR. Simple!

The tricky thing with Thumbjam is that you need to choose the key the instruments are in (before you can get a tuneful accompaniament). I just do it by instinct / ear, but I'm sure there are people who understand this kind of thing a lot better.

Finally - I can put down the orchestral scores that have been in my head since I was a kid!

Beauty song Tim! Tharek the thumbjam man told me to get that app and I`ll be downloading soon.

He used it amazing and now hearing yours i know it works well. Excellent sounds.
That uke looks and sounds great too!

[Greeny]

Tharek the thumbjam man told me to get that app and I`ll be downloading soon.

I saw Tharek using it when we all met last Summer. I've been hankering after it ever since. It's taken this long to end my current phone contract and get the requisite upgrade!

I'm quite pleased at having Streetfighter II on my phone too... lol
