I wanted to create this blog as a place where I can store and retrieve information for future reference. I chose the name Humble Uker Ramblings because I have started out strumming my father's 1950's painted Harmony ukulele. I think that the greatest appeal of the ukulele as "the people's instrument" is it's humble simplicity. My contact email is HumbleUker@gmail.com. I have also been working on a blog for the Baritone Ukulele called Humble Baritonics.
Chanson Pour L'Auvergnat by George Brassens Ukulele Cover
I am hoping to see a sudden outburst of people playing solo ukulele in trees and singing in other beautiful languages.Oh, why limit it to solos? Let's get groups playing in trees!
Thanks for this, Jeff. Brassens has been one of my heroes for the past forty-five years (!). Nice to hear this song accompanied by a ukulele.

The Berkeley Ukulele Club would be a natural

come down for bathroom breaks.
