This weeks challenge from the Ukulele Underground is to make a CONNECTION to the
Intro song by the host... One man and his Uke. He chose to play Bye Bye Baby.
So the connection is to the title that has Bye Bye in it and my contribution is Bye Bye Blackbird
which is a song published in 1926 by the American composer Ray Henderson and lyricist Mort Dixon.
It is considered a popular standard and was first recorded by Sam Lanin's Dance Orchestra in March 1926.
Diana Krall did a version used in the soundtrack of the movie Public Enemies, which captures the pathos of the song.

 
Great! Did you also do the percussion track?
