OK, it's not on ukulele, but I found this on YouTube and just has to share it. Nick Lucas doing incredible guitar work on his original composition, Tip Toe Through the Tulips. I am definitely going to start working on a cover of this!

You can see it on my blog or just in the video box below (but do be kind and visit my blog and check it out - I'm posting kind of regular now):

Thank you for this post--I love watching these old black and white videos. What a treat!
 
Never heard the original. So, Timy Tim's ukulele rendition w/his falsetto voice was his attempt at approximating the original vibrato & glissando (slideing the voice smoothly up or down the scale).

Some people hear this & HATE the whole song because of Tiny Tim's effect on the ukulele. This brings the song back into the realm of nice to hear.
