Ukulele Weeping

Just been completely blown away by a four minute video of a guy sitting on a bench in Central Park playing George Harrison's While My Guitar Gently Weeps, on ukulele. Listen. Take the time. Thanks to ysmarko for the link.

I'm inspired! No more research for Jon this afternoon. I'm off to practice on my guitar...

Wow, book this guy for create!

this guy has his own website, where you can listen to a few more clips, and buy CDs. I'm quite tempted to get one. It'll have to wait though for a bit.

didn't quite know what to look for at first, but once I noticed - very funny!

Fantastic ukelele playing. Of course, George himself loved playing it too - being a George Formby fan. As a tribute to George, Paul McCartney sang "Something" solo to a ukelele at Manchester a couple of years ago.
