TheGentleSurprise – What are you Doing New Year’s Eve

Happy melancholy-day….

YouTube Channel: TheGentleSurprise

His Notes: In which we inquire about holiday plans and get used to our new ukulele.

Dave Bamberger – Bass
Instruments – Dec 21, 2010
Vox – Dec 22, 2010

Song written by Frank Loesser.

I _think_ the original version was recorded by The Orioles in 1949, but there’s a really early Les Paul/Dick Haymes version too, so who knows? Music nerds better than me at musc nerdin’, that’s who.
Oh yeah, and I forgot until this very moment that the Carpenters did it, too. So yeah.

Ken Middleton – Away in a Manger

One of the hymns from Ken’s new book….

SheepStar15 – Winter Wonderland

I was gonna try and hold off on the xmas vids for a while, but yesterday’s was so good, and SheepStar15 can do no wrong, so what the heck – Merry Christmas….

YouTube Channel: Sheepstar15

Her Notes:

This song was written by Felix Bernard and Richard B Smith in 1934, and first recorded by Perry Como. The first lyrics did not include the bit about the Circus Clown — that was added in 1953, but I’m using both parts just because I like them.

I used a Joe Spraggan custom soprano, a short scale P-Bass, an Angel glockenspiel and some toy sleigh bells. Happy days.

I’ve been snowed in for three days now, but I’m quite enjoying myself and finding it’s a good time to get some uke practice in. The footage in the top left pane is from the weather reports and of my feet as I was attempting to walk to the local shop in the ruts left by car wheels. Much easier than clambering over the snow drifts.

I do not own the rights to this song, this is merely an homage and no copyright infringement is intended.
