A veritable fountain of creativity art thou, oldrottenhead!

I luv eastern flavoured stuff..and man you got a dose in this baby. I felt like i was sitting around a fire with bloodshot eyes and being transported into another realm of consciousness..

This is such a great example of how cool a tune one can come up with without being some famous virtuoso. You are really getting comfortable of the ukes. This is one of the coolest posts of yours ever. I can't believe how much imagery this generates. I'd say genius but i don't want your rotten head to explode 

Love to know how you did the AWESOME percussion. So close to tablas but i have a feeling you are gonna say it was a soup pan or something. It had to have been handmade sounds...wasn't it? Inquiring minds want to know!

Oh yeah! That's awesome. I love that ukussion. Works perfectly with the uke playing and vocals. You've got a cool middle-eastern or Greek sound happening there. The uke almost sounds like a bouzouki.

No drum machines, no arpeggiator, no loops. True DIY multitracking. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout, sister!

That's damn it! I'm buying a Uke this weekend!! Hope your wife loved it and you be getting some
