Since Al Wood started his extended Christmas break and put Ukulele Hunt on hiatus, some of us have been suffering withdrawal pains. As a tribute to his Saturday UkeTube selections and in anticipation of his return next week, here are few videos I’ve been listening to lately.
What Do I Gotta Do, by Jeremiah Camacho
Under the Covers, by Kate Sloan
Vangelis’ Missing, played by Ken Middleton
Tamacun, played by Brittni Paiva
Lilli Marleen, played by Bernd Dombrowski
The Cure’s “Friday I’m in Love,” performed by Najmah
Staten Island Slide, played by the Slavic Inferno
Lauren O’Connell’s Sweet Lament, performed by Neva Keuroglian
My Blue Heaven, played by L. Strachey (aka ReyalpEleluku)
“Deja Vu Date,” by Miss Zooey
“By the Sleepy Lagoon,” arranged for ukulele and performed by Martin Wheatley

/ January 16, 2010Nice! Sometimes I feel like you put these posts up just for me, a few other specific people, and several dozen random and not-so-random web surfers. Thanks!
Something about Camacho reminds me of Tay (Chocolate Rain) Zonday. Not the singing nor the ukulele, though.
Paiva really rocks out!
Nice to see/hear Dombrowski on LTL again!

/ January 16, 2010Glad you like them! Kate Sloan’s song is really disturbing, I thought.

/ January 17, 2010Yep! Somehow the ukulele works with it, though.

/ January 20, 2010Nice to see that I’m not the only one suffering from Uke Hunt withdrawal pains!
And funny I had the same idea as you, only I wrote a Sunday Uke Tube post… instead of a Saturday one 🙂
I quite liked My Blue Heaven. Nice playing.
And the cat who was decidedly turning his back to the camera on the Staten Island Slide.
Thanks for posting this.
