Ok, after chording Uncle Rod's practice sheets, in/out, out/in/out fingerpicking and growing callouses, there will come a time to concentrate on learning actual songs. Sure, I can play a few, but I haven't spent time adding them to a personal 'playlist' and calling them 'completed;...
Here's my fantasy list of stuff I'd like to be able to play early on
1. Somewhere over the rainbow (Iz version)
2. A Kiss to build a dream on - Louis Armstrong
3. Stand by Me- Ben E King
4. Billie Jean- Michael Jackson
5. Moondance- Van Morrison
6. Hawiian standard? please suggest one for me
7. blues classic- need some help here too
8. anything Beatles
and for fun cause I'm not a singer.. and these can be talked through..
9. Up Against The Wall Redneck Mother- Jerry Jeff Walker
10. When I'm Cleaning Windows- George Formby
I hope everyone will post a list so I can steal great song ideas from you
What does your list of 10 look like?
btw.. having a blast after only 4 weeks of Uke. Everyone on this forum sounds like they are having tons of fun. My new KoAloha Thin Body Tenor gets here tomorrow.."Lord, I promise to wait longer before my next purchase "
