Lay Down Sally

Eric Clapton had a hit with this tune over thirty years ago. It reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1977 and got to #26 as a cross over hit on the country charts the following year. Not sure Eric ever intended it for ukulele, but I couldn't resist. Next time is Hawaiian shirt time.

Missed out on this one Mark,

very nice, teach me how to play the Uke

one day, sounds very good

One lesson guarantee, or your money back. It's a baritone uke, which means it is strung the same as the top four stings on a guitar. No need to learn new fingering and you get to save some energy by not dealing with the A and low E strings. You can get a pretty decent uke for under $200. Looking forward to hearing you post one with ukulele in hand here on youtube; Hawaiian shirt optional. - Mark

Thanks, NAncy. For a moment there I thought you wrote, nuke the uke. Whew, the little stringed instrument gets to live and irritate yet another day.- Mark
