hi everyone

this is my attempt at the old standard "Blue Moon", written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in 1934.

In keeping with the time period I used a 1920's Supertone soprano ukulele. My daughter recorded it out on the front porch of our old cottage.

thanks for stopping by to have a look and listen!

thanks Carrie and Stan for taking the time to write a comment.

Stan, that soprano is cute as a button and only cost $125. Love the decal on the body. I got it in mint condition and it only took me 5 minutes to put strum marks all over the face of it!!!
