Awesome how youve got a Ukulele to sound so atmospheric

Very Impressed!

nice!

[mandotoot]

5 stars on the Uke solo

[dk212]

Wow very cool stuff. I've watched a bunch of your videos and they all sound so cool on ukulele.

[TheTwinsCC]

what is the tuning used?

[mrpestopickles]

Amazing.

[porkinwitz]

pardon my ignorance,.....but what kind of uke is that one?,.......and do you have a favorite?

[AlanSturgess]

It looks big enough to be a baritone ukelele which is tuned the same as the top four strings as a guitar (DGBE). Several of the big guitar makers also make baritone ukes. I recently bought one made by Brunswyck but the usual name that's associated with this instrument is Lanikai. There are several good baritone uke uploads on Youtube.

[monopixel]

Great stuff!

[vegroms]

you rock the hell out of parts I-V, ever thought about doing a song from animals?? maybe Dogs, or Pigs on the wing1and2?

[AlanSturgess]

It always amuses me the way some folks EXPECT to be given the tabs for music .... as if it's some form of right that they have.

[Sanboy125]

You didn't give me the mandolin tabs.. :-(

[Skifflerman]

Saw a comment by PeterClimber before it vanished. He was right - the tabs ARE available, so you didn't search hard enough. Like him, I also use a commercial program to auto-convert any guitar tab for my baritone uke. Very fast and easy. There's no point in hoping others will do the work for you - get out there and do it or find it for yourself.

[idiot866]

Wow! this is great, sounds amazing. is this regular tuning?

I just started playing ukulele literally 2 days ago, would anyone have any advice? I have been trying to learn the coords but my fingers are still so hard to control, and the tips of the fingers hurt!

[zazerdude]

EXCELLENT!

i <3 this

[sockenfrank]

das ist dein bestes stück hier, finde ich.

was für eine ukulele ist das denn ?

die werde ich mir zulegen und das lied spielen.

[gasty78]

Hermoso :)

[onthemoveagain]

I really enjoyed this.

[sockenfrank]

das stück haut mich immer wieder von den socken.

das ist die absolut beste akustische umsetzung eines pink floyd stückes die ich je gehört habe.

respekt und bewunderung.

[sockenfrank]

was ´n hammer.

das ist ja geil.

[maliakei]

I Love listening to all your ukulele solos. Many of those songs bring back fond memories. Mahalo!

[Sanboy125]

Man, this is awesome... I was desperately searching for this one. Plz gimme the mandolin tabs..

[Sanboy125]

This is a mandolin, ain't it?

[WS64]

Sure. And I just wrote "ukulele solo" in the title for fun.

[UndisclosedUsername]

amazing i couldn't have done it better myself

[rmeader001]

[danusko1974]

Great job !!!!

[stryngtheory]

[mrburn68]

Wow i,ve just ordered a concert uke and seeing you play has got me biting at the bit although i am a complete novice so have a long journey ahead of me but you are v good thanks for posting!

[degcon]

This is one of your best. I never would had thought this song would be suitable for ukulele, but you did it perfectly!

[moonkoen]

supercool! great build-up and VERY sweet sound !

do you record with a mike or with active pick-ups directly plugged in the pc?

anyway GREAT SOUND, GREAT JOB

[gruff5]

Beautiful, faultless - bravo!!

[mahalo111]

WS Wow! Please put this recording on vimeo.... I'd love to hear and see it in better quality. Can always expect the best from you!

[WS64]

I did, but it seems they have a new private/public feature that I did not notice, and the video was private. I changed it to public now!

[Meganzord57]

This is one of my favorite songs, and I'm so happy to see it so beautifully done on uke! Thank you for playing and uploading it!

[metamurph]

love it, this would be an awesome one for you to experiment with some multi-tracking.

[CAJman01]

ok major song to take on, especially on uke, did NOT expect to see pink floyd from you, LOVE IT YOU DID A WONDERFUL JOB!

[riceboii101]

oMG! dude this is amazing. one of the greatest pink floyd songs ever.and you arranged it on ukulele your brilliant.Thank you for this lovely tune it made my day.

[Cosmicyon]

Coolio matey.

I x

[bios36]

Yes Sir! Excellent!

Rick

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

Very nice.

[taketheshamethough]

That last comment was directed to that Muppet Hytrees

[taketheshamethough]

If being a twat isn't bad enough, you have to be an American twat. What happened to your once fine nation that it ended up producing assholes like you in the 1980s?

[CAJman01]

IN DA PANTS!!

[pidongpaltik]

nice

[UkuleleAcademy]

Awesome! Shine on braddah!

[Boondockflyfish]

holy cats....that's awesome

[floydbluethereal]

great, love it

[logophile]

Sweet! Way to go, WS

[ridbop]

Do more Floyd, please! Your too fantastic.

[thingsBIGthe]

beautiful

[maryannorman]

brilliant!!

[MagicAccent]

Wow... Wow... Wow...

Just... Wow! That is without a doubt the best cover of any Pink Floyd song I've ever heard! You even managed to get that etheral echo sound just right.

Wow.

[SweepAndMopp]

You're the only one in the world who could take that song and make it fit on a ukulele. Nice arrangement as always.

[Dejital]

So much better than expected when I saw the video's name. Great arrangement! However, it lacks 20 minutes of the same couple chords being played.

[shadowflar3]

Great job! I love Pink Floyd's music and I play tons of it myself on uke, too. I've been playing this piece in the original key and I also like playing Time, Us and Them and Echoes.

[propnose]

Once again... a beautiful rendition! Are you a professional musician? Because if it's not what you do for a living, than it should be! You play so beautifully!

[WS64]

Last time I saw any money for my music was in the very late 1980s. Today I just play for fun and to bother hytrees.

[casetone2514]

Well said. That was a fantastic rendition as are all your posts.

[chitchatt2006]

Ditto to the beautiful rendition. Thanks for playing for all of us - I hope you continue enjoying playing because we all love hearing it. Your heckler must secretly love you - else why would he visit ;)

[norwaynympho]

@WS64 You should contact the ukulele orchastra of great britain

[pshapiro]

i loved this. great musicality and timing. every note played is crisp and clean.

[tinkerdilll]

Amazing!!!

[ukuleleinstrumentals]

Great rendition!
