Here's another grade 8 ukulele piece. George Harrison's best songs are here and apparently, he loved the Ukulele. Please excuse the odd fluff here and there - it's too damn hard! (and incredibly long!)

Very cool Jackofall,

I love your Uke playing. I love the sound and its one of those instruments where you have it or you don`t.

You nailed this tune perfectly too. Great Work!!

`Wow, very nice n cool !!  Great uke playing and performance...really enjoyed listening.!.

Sounds pretty tricky & some complicated chord patterns in some of these great familiar tunes .... you'd surely be a 'big hit' wherever you go & perform!

This was a really great listen !!! Your ukulele skills are amazing. What you manage to get out of those 4 strings on that tiny instrument is unbelievable.

George is smiling wherever he is !!

Yeah thats beautiful.  I love that plinky, chimey sound.  I need a uke, I must get one, of course it would take me years to  be able to play like this.  Great listen.

Alternate Tunings: CAUTION: your fingers have to be in different places

Thank you very much for these great and encouraging comments. I really want to pass this exam and have some sort of 'qualification' to teach the instrument. The Ukulele orchestra of Great Britain is coming to our town in October and I think that after this concert, hundreds of people will be wanting to play the Uke! If I could get this grade, I might get a bit of work! There's also a teacher's diploma after grade 8 so I want to have a go at that too...
