Don't Let Me Down - ukulele Beatles

Probably my last entry to thejumpingflea's "Play the Beatles, Win a Uke" contest. I had originally wanted to film the video on the roof the way the Beatles did it, but the weather was never cooperative, so I opted for a studio recording. I had to film and edit the whole thing twice because I was not satisfied with the first result. I'm okay with the way this version came out.

SOME FACTS:
Two uke tracks, two vocal tracks and some keyboard at the end.
Recorded in my upstairs studio.
The recording engineer's voice was spoken into an empty Pringles can.
Two cameras rolling at once!
In the video, the only things plugged in are the lights.
New York City T-shirt from ebay.
Ukulele close-up turned out too much like a crotch-shot. Sorry.

@MrBradleighB The solid-body is a JupiterCreek, and the archtop was custom made by Russel Crosby.
