Are there any books, blogs, or other sources for a history of the evolution of ukulele music? (Not a history of the ukulele itself, but of the music played on a ukulele.)
I'm not sure of the beginnings, but there must be some key individuals who have helped the music evolve over the many years.
How did we get from the early days of ukulele music to James Hill doing an electric version of Jimi Hendrix's music? While Jake was my introduction to ukulele, who influenced him? How did the music change over the years, and what role did key individuals play in these changes?
