  1. Just watched the ukulele clip; Jake is a guy with a *major* talent, and I think I’ll be searching for other clips of his playing, in future.

    (Aside: his surname is one I’ve only seen one other example of, before; wonder if he’s related to the Shimabukuro we both know?)

    Anyway, here’s my personal favourite, when it comes to acoustic guitar favourites (OK, 6 rather than 4 strings, but… 🙂 )

    The best recording I used to know about, apears to have unfortunately disappeared; on this one, song starts at about 1:30 in, after a little spoken introduction.

    Still, get a load of that string-picking!

  2. >wonder if he’s related to the Shimabukuro we both know?

    Apparently so. Bart has details.
