A bit of blues, and a load of laughs!

Well here is a video that really does show me up. I had been writing a song and had a few lines down on paper.

I was also fiddling about with a little blues on my ukulele; would they work together - only one way to find out ........ and here it is!



and here are the lyrics which are not necessarily what I was singing, had I been drinking?

I'm Not There

Nobody listen to my plea

Nobody want's to listen to my plea

I'm just invisible, I'm not there

Nobody seems to care, For me.......

Call me mister No........body

Call me mister No........body

I'm just mister No........body

Thats me!

Too many times Ive tried to grow

Be the kind of man, I'd like to know

I'm just invisible, I'm not there

Nobody seems to care, For me.......

Call me mister No........body

Call me mister No........body

I'm just mister No........body

Thats me!

Nobody want to be my friend

They got excuses I can't comprehend

I might as well not be around, I'm not there

Nobody seems to care, For me.......

Another fun session with Dr John!

Ukulele: San Francisco Bay Blues Cover

The best laid plans o'mice and men gang aft agley - Burns.

Well I thought that the song I mentioned in my last post would be the next for the YouTube treatment. But I came across this blues number from Eric Clapton - I loved it and as the chord chart was in one of the songbooks from Ukulele Central UK, the club/group I have joined, I decided to make it happen (LOL, Jean Luc Goddard).

So here it is, a first go at "San Francisco Bay Blues" on the ukulele. I used my new Gretch 9120 tenor.



Whilst in the get-up, I decided to replace a video on the Tube which for some reason I do not understand was very unfocused. Focus great now - pity about the vocal.



I will be doing "Hold Back The River" and most probably "Livin' On A Prayer", but later.
