Paddy Works On The Railway & Sam Hall

[Ukelectic]

Have the self same songbooks so great to hear someone working them for the uke....fine work..unlikely I will match it!!

[CelticthunderRules]

man ur great keep going dude wanna hear more from u

[rightonpard]

Superb, I am a big fan of the Dubliners version of Paddy works on the railway, I'll have to dig my LP out and have a listen.

[casetone2514]

Thanks

To my shame, I do not own a single Dubliners record. I must remedy that.

[mctrmt]

Lovely picking!

it's amazing what a nice set of strings will do! My husband is partial to Aquilas, but can't decide whether I like them or Worths better.

[casetone2514]

Thanks M-A

Does your hubby have a YT channel?

[mctrmt]

He does, but he hasn't posted any of his own uke stuff on it yet (there's documentation of some of his installations and a Cedar Tavern Singers performance)- his username is dhoffos.

[JTPokie]

Nicely done!

[casetone2514]

Cheers JT

[krabbers]

bring back the curtains

all sounds good to me

[casetone2514]

Thanks. The curtains are GONE and the new ones are out of shot - ON PURPOSE

[russbuss415]

i'm not one for the string discussion. my ears aren't keen enough to tell the difference. that said, i very much enjoyed both your songs. hat and scarf are a win!

[casetone2514]

Thanks Russ - I was going for the Gay-Casey-Jones look. I'm with you on the strings, but I was surprised at the huge difference the Aquilas made.

[phillipsderek]

Love the folk stuff! 5*

You might like to try Worth strings next time you are experimenting, they are also good.

[casetone2514]

Thanks

Like I say, I am limited to what the local shops have to offer, but I'll definitely try to get some Worths

[unclejeff64]

sounds great!

[casetone2514]

Thanks Jeff

[okvolleyball]

great job

[casetone2514]

Thank you

[theBradlands]

You do great on these folk-type songs Tony.

[casetone2514]

Thanks Brad. You have a good 'folkie' voice. You should try some out.

[fourteentwelve]

Nice singing and playing! I know what you mean about the strings... my first uke, a Greg Bennett, had a huge improvement too when I put the Aquila strings on it. It went from being dull and dead sounding, to a really nice playable uke.

[casetone2514]

Thanks very much. I'll see you in the next big string debate on UU

[hoosierhiver]

Nice one Tony

[casetone2514]

Thanks a lot

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

Really evocative stuff Tony.

[casetone2514]

Thanks Ken

[ukeshale]

quintessentially irish ;) haha. just playing. really beautiful job. I love your write ups too, Tony. I think I look forward to them almost as much as the videos.

[casetone2514]

Cheers Shane. You've got a big word - now put it away until you've learned how to use it! ; )

Thanks again

[lisaxy424]

I want me one of those hats! ;)

Great job on both parts!

[casetone2514]

Thanks Lisa

It is a girls' hat. It had a flower on it but my friend took it off and expanded the headband.

[Xnoxreason90X]

Ach was soll man da nur sagen.

Total geil ☺

Schön gecovert

oder wie die Amis sagen würden

Nice Job Dude ☻

[casetone2514]

Danke schön.

Ich spreche nicht Deutsches zu gut. Das Babelfish hilft mir viel.

[EdMuirton]

Very much enjoying your fabulous renditions of these old songs! Great stuff! Guitar strings - I have to change them or out of tune she go's, but I only change them if I'm recording. Cost's too much to be in tune all the time. Cheers Good Sir!

[casetone2514]

Thanks Ed

[irvingjohn]

Awesome style! And completely agreement in regards to strings. The uke is so strange... type of strings really make all the difference compared to most other instruments.

[casetone2514]

Thanks very much.

See you in the next big string debate

[deach69]

Love the uniform. Thanks for another cool history lesson. Nice picking on both songs.

[casetone2514]

Uniform? That's my Sunday best

Thanks Deach

[BaronK69]

Sweet song and great sounding strings! Extra plus for the Richie Blackmore style string curl up by the tuners!

[casetone2514]

Ha.  Blackmore's Uke - maybe his next band.

Thanks
