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.

HERB OHTA (OHTA-SAN)
While researching Shin’s information I found some Herb Ohta YouTube videos. If you enjoy the embedded videos be sure to click on the two others that I couldn’t embed for some great vintage footage. One of my first ukulele CD’s was Lyle Ritz Herb Ohta A Night of Ukulele Jazz Live at McCabb’s. That album opened my eyes to more possibilities on the ukulele, chord melodies.Clair de Lune
