Comment:

After about a year of silly ukelele chat, I've just given a ukelele (admittedly a cheap and from eBay-type one) to a friend of mine for her birthday. This mix is to accompany it. Whilst it was supposed to be a mainly ukelele/Hawaiian mix, as it expanded from the middle outwards it wandered into other areas.

I love the Mapfumo --> Alphonso stretch most of all. And I wonder if you got the Gimmicks record just based on the cover, as I did.

I'm five tracks in and already enjoying this immensely. I can hardly wait for the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain to do their thing. muchas gracias for the link.

Love the UOoGB - saw them play live at Glastonbury last year and a happier tent I was not in all weekend. Cheers for the comments, all!

Sweet stuff. Don't know much of the instrument, but I'm enjoying it as I listen, which is the thing that matters, I guess.

I meant to comment earlier, but didn't get around to it. I just listened to the mix again, and it's a definite keeper. Lots of fun, and lots of variety. The kind of mix I like for repeated listening. The cover image is very nice, too, did you take it?

A rather belated "OMG! This is fantastic!" I downloaded this when it was available but am just not getting a chance to get it a good listen. Dy-Na-Mi-Tee is beyond brilliant. Thanks so much.
