Love his passion for recovering the lost verses and intros….

YouTube Channel: UkesterBrown

His Notes: This song was written by Billy Rose, E.Y. Harburg and Harold Arlen in 1933. We all seem to know the main section of this song, but I always figured there had to be more to it. Here you can see a version by Rufus WainWright: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHgElwD0VQQ
There is a song practice sheet at www.ukesterbrown.com for your musical education and entertainment.

Can’t get enough of this….

Their Notes: Moments after Rock Your Body, The Be Arthurs perform Toxic by Britney Spears, to a fantastic group of kids on Edmonton’s LRT. Arlen Konopaki from Highwire Films does a tremendous job of filming.

Combining two of the lower forms of humor (puns and potty) can sometimes elevate both, and you have to admire his bravery for covering this Kate Bush song in his “Toilet Seat Cover” series….

This is a cover of Kate Bush’s ‘Babooshka’. All vids were recorded on my iphone in my toilet.

From an interview and performance at the Ukucafe with the Thai language Undo Magazine.  Tried to get more info, but google’s Thai translations sound like Dr. Suess on a bender…

Their Notes: Our friend Arlen Konopaki from Highwire Films followed us around one day as we hoped on the LRT here in Edmonton and played songs for the passengers. While waiting for the next train to arrive, we passed the time by just improving. This song is Cliquot by Beirut, a fantastic band from Long Island. www.thebearthurs.com www.highwirefilms.com

His Notes: Went to the beach in North Wales last weekend. It was cold – very cold. I managed to play a few bars before my fingers seized up and got tangled in the strings.

I am trying to play a lovely Irish (or English) folk song called “The Leaving Of Liverpool”. I am using my Kiwaya KTS-4.
