I once saw a fragment on the internet where this song was performed in a solo by a lady (an old fragment). I can't find it anywhere, but I found out this will do. What a fascinating rhythm, it is!

I remember as a kid in the early 50's watching Jiminy Crickett, my Mother always said, "that's Ukele Ike." Now I have a couple of his cd's and love him more than ever, it's said he was one of the original scat singers.

I learned how to play chord change from a 'Ukulele Ike' song book. It was my first fake book. It had tune like "Jada", Don't Blame me", I cried fro you" Darktown Strutters ball". Love his singing. It seems like Leon Redbone may have been influenced by cliff "Ukulele Ike" Edwards. Much thx for posting. I'm adding to my favs.

Look at the cigarette at the headstock of the uke, uh rock guitar players didnt start tht trend after all. lol

Playing this again and again on my saxophone...just love it. =)

I think the main riff is clearly based on this. But I wouldn't say the whole song "Burn" is based on this, as stuff like the vocals aren't at all based on this song imo.



But, I just gotta ask you to correct the spelling of rhythm. As a long-time admirer of the dictionary...

I don't think I have heard Mr Edwards music before but I like it. I was wonderin' if you have every heard of George Formby - "I'm The Ukelele Man" Very cool vid BTW :) Peace & Health
