Nice performance. I enjoyed the Ukulele as the lead instrument.

First of all, Brian, you come up with the most clever titles. The Duke OF Uke. Rhumba Don't Slumba. hehe. Yes, I really like this style and the chord changes you created. Is that ukulele in the pic the one u=you used? Beautiful instrument, and the sound is wonderful. Well done.

The label inside gives no clue to its origin but I'm guessing comes from China. Bought last year online from a retailer in Queensland (AU).

Uke is far from a favourite instrument of mine because it reminds me of those old time seaside comedians. It takes on a new flavour here though and reminds me of warm holidays in Spain.

Janice said this sounded like part of a soundtrack from a 1960’s movie with a suave actor like David Niven or Cary Grant.  Very pleasant with a nice performance and a fine mix. Enjoyed it, J&B

J&B Thanks. People my age tend to get kind of stuck in that 60s-70s groove (some call it a rut), well, at least it was real music!

Ghostgum,
It's a fun and enjoyable song to listen to! It's a refreshing different direction from most of the material posted. The uke kind of gives a nylon string feel. I'm not used to hearing single notes being played on one of these. Usually, it's all strumming, but you did a fine job!
Thanks, Torrey
