With the popularity of YouTube, we decided to do an issue dedicated to video. But also, this issue features a great article on George Harrison. There is a review of Mainland's "Classic Mahogany" baritone uke. We review a Kala Ukadelic "Tropical Day" uke. Lots of articles and interesting stuff.

Special thanks to Austin Kaiser for the George Harrison article (with some great story telling from Jumpin' Jim Beloff.

Pippin,
That is an excellent story on George Harrison. Obviously many people remember him as a guitarist and songwriter in the Fab Four. But indeed, he had Uke fever just like the rest of us. Another excellent issue. Thank you for your hard work in putting it all together.

Credit for the George Harrison article has to go to Austin Kaiser. He did an excellent job and Jumpin' Jim Beloff provided some of the source material. Austin will be doing an article on ukulele hall-of-famer Lyle Ritz in a coming issue.
