I learned this tune last week then got sick and just now getting to record it. This is LITLR in my office, good tile floors with the mbr maybe 6-8 inches away on the desk. I'm also using my new Lanikai concert uke...



it has a nice sound, certainly a much better acoustic sound than the Epihone Les Paul uke! I accidentally had it on a vocal delay setting, unsure how but I dig the result!

Strummy goodness (that new uke sounds sweet), and a great vocal. In fact, on uke it has quite a different flavor…I dig it!

Rule on!

Great cover Hook, really works well in this style.

I bought a Uke the other year and that is also a Lanikai, has a lovely sound, really should record something else with it!

I love this album, it think it is well written and produced. I approached this with some trepidation - I needn't have worried.

Its a really great cover Hook. You should do this live, audiences will love it.

I agree with Burtog - Everybody wants to Uke the world.
