I bought the 'Ukulele Songs" record last week. The first few times I played it I just didn't think much of it at all...then....I started to get my head around where the songs were coming from, the lyrics and the melodies...it started to sound great and I now am a big fan of the album. There really are several great songs on there.
My beef: why, oh why did he throw in those two token covers at the end? ('Tonight You Belong To Me' and 'Dream A Little Dream Of Me') I think they (especially the latter) are the worst versions of those songs I've ever heard, and ultimately, they detract from all the great stuff beforehand. I would have been much happier with a 29 minute album of his songs solely, rather than a 34 minute album with those two train wrecks closing it out.
