Gently Weeps - different version

teedotaj · Mar 18, 2014

Does it exist? lol.

l tried the search feature already and I spent a whole day looking to no avail.

Jake's version is nice obviously. I'm sure others tried their own version. Can anyone point me to their videos if they happen to be posted somewhere? Would be nice to see a different arrangement of that song. Specially one closer to the original.

I'd do it myself if I could but my skills are severely limited. lol

Thanks!!

Well, not really a different version, but obviously a different instrument.

While my Geierleier genty weeps (that's not me):

How's that instrument known in the USA?

Georgie's version is the original. not an arrangement/interpretation. OP was asking :

Here a tabs to a different Low-G version:

Didn't find a recording and have no ukulele in reach, but a quick look at the tabs says, it's completely different and probably more closer to the original.
