  • maybe the guy recording this had to zooom in reeaaaallll close for thats why his hands sshkaing..

  • Yes, thank you dragon. I had this small Nikon with a 10x optical zoom with poor stabilization, zoomed all the way in. Most digital cameras are only 3x or 4x optical zoom. Nikon has come out with an updated version of the same camera with an improved optical stabilizer. Some choose to focus on the thorns, others the roses in life . . .

  • Jake is a genius...playing with such a deep rich tone loaded with overtones (ignore shakey camera and just listen. Like the Zen Masters he uses the drone of a passing plane as part of his performance...giving space...and then he's back with ninja focus. Master Jake, we kneel at your feet

  • Fantastic musician. I love the way he develops the melody into a chordal, arpeggiated texture - and his sensitivity of touch, not something many uke players are noted for! Sakura has been a favourite tune of mine since I learned it as a child, but this takes it to another level.
