Slow Marching Band - Jethro Tull Ukulele Cover Version

This is 'Slow Marching Band' by the mighty Jethro Tull!
This song is off the 'Broadsword and the Beast' album and tends to get a little over looked.

The beginning of the song is originally played as a flute solo intro by Ian 'Fish Farm' Anderson. Getting the little ornaments to work on the uke was a bit of a challenge and I still could do with some practise really!
Bit of a mistake towards the latter end but, hey, the rest of it was going fairly well...

If you are the OTHER Tull fan out there (LOL!) you could do worse than to check out this guys (stealurface1976) covers as he has got a great voice for the songs.

Take care all!

@ukecycle Thanks for the comment. see above! I think it's a cool song on the Uke whether it actually 'works' is the thing of great discussion! Take it easy...'walk on slowly!'

That's amazing! I play ukulele and I LOVE Tull (I've seen them 8 times since '82), but would never have thought of trying this song on uke! Great job!
