Jolly Roger Song of the Day
This page is a mess. It is NOT ready for you yet.
Gimme some more time and I'll email the group when it's ready.
Jolly Roger TuffUke for Ukulele and Baritone
You play one a day, I will post videos as quickly as I can and you should make a video on your phone two and either DropBox it or YouTube it as "unlisted" and then send me the link.
Even if you've played these before, I bet you can play them better now. If you are new, focus in on getting the best out of one song per week. Try to memorize the hard parts so you can look away from the music. Work your way through everything thinking about the best techniques:
- Index finger strumming
- Singing while keeping a steady beat
- Thumb down glissandi
- Claw-position finger-style
