Talk of the Nation on NPR. I enjoyed the radio conversation and would like to re-hear his thoughts on the missing elements of music theory. Perhaps these would provide a good 3 questions for Jim D'Ville and his ears.
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.

Alert for NPR listeners || Another Interview with Ukulele
Nellie McKay plays Doris Day songs and accompanies herself with a ukulele. I'll try to find the audio link and post it. What a sweet voice. She's interviewed by Terry Gross on Fresh Air.
