Sorry to repeat myself here, folks. But in case you missed this, you may want to download these tunes and play 'em while doing stuff around the house, etc. during this time of year.
It's been a pleasure for my wife, daughter and I puttin' out decorations and what not with music from playing in the background from all the great members here. Please keep 'em coming!
Really excellent mood and relaxed playing.
Awesome Gerald! |

I have to agree that ukulele and bass make a wonderful pair for some beautiful, simple, yet elegant music. The uke is great for making beautiful chord voicings because the re-entrant tuning puts the higher notes closer together. The bass fills in the bottom perfectly... Great stuff!
A Lyle Ritz recording of bass and uke is what started my love affair with ukulele years ago. Since I last played ukulele, my son has learned to play acoustic bass in the orchestra at his middle school... I think it is about time crack open that uke case and work out some songs with him.
Sorry Gerald, I'm not trying to hijack your thread here. It is just that you are very inspirational. Great stuff as usual.

Thanks all.
And Kurt...
Kurt has been a musician his whole life and has recently (in the last 2 years) taken up the lap steel. He's sent me some of his home recordings on the steel. Great stuff! The guy's got it, and he got it really fast.
