Mad Ukulele Skills

When I was in high school, I purchased a ukulele and learned how to play a handful of songs. It was a lot of fun, and I kind of wish I still had that old uke.

A couple of years ago, I ran across a video on YouTube of a guy playing George Harrison’s song “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” on the ukulele. The musician’s name is Jake Shimabukuro , and his ukulele skills are unbelievable.

Enjoy.

    Mad skills indeed. I wish I had learned to play the guitar, or the ukelele or the piano or something like that. But I didn’t…so I’ll have to settle for the enjoyment of listening to others play.

    Jake is awesome, he’s got some future competition
    check out this little Japanese kid – he’s pretty good (and cute for a 5 year old!)
