dasilvasmooths Desmond Dekker's the israelites (aka my eels are alive)

[dasilvasings]

Can't believe the last time I posted was in 2014!
Kids are growing slowly, but growing!
Finally I am starting to have some spare time for my music. I have been playing almost every Tuesday in a jam session very close to where I live.
I have been playing mostly my new.... ukulele bass. It is an amazing instrument, and I am having a lot of fun with it.

So... back to the post.
A classic from Desmond Dekker that was actually played live with Jools Holland!
You can hear the ukulele bass in the song, along with a concert ukulele, a couple of dss voices. Slightly bassier than DD...
Everything was recorded with the iphone/ ipad, mix with cubasis (ipad) and final masterization with final touch (also ipad).

So... nevermind the bollocks, here's dasilvasings

Love Desmond Dekker, and this sounds like it was a lot of fun to cover. The bass uke sounds really present - nicely done, DSS!

Meant to comment the other day when I listened, really cool stuff. Love that bass, I just got a U-Bass (solid body electric) and I love it. You sound great on it.
Rock On!
