      Its a good channel but he sometimes talks too much. Phil Dolman's is better

    Awesome! Sometimes what we need is playing riffs rather than whole songs; it helps feeling good with the instrument (said the eternal lazy beginner).

    • @UkuleleZen

      Thanks Stéphane! Yes, and often the riff is the part that can be added to a song sheet to make the whole song sound & feel more "full". Play on!

    This song is a pretty idea for Ukulele. We have done this song in December as a birthday song for a friend for his 50th - with the Electric-Ukulele.
    Friends and ourselfs had so much fun. A small version you can find at our channel (as a not listed video in our anniversary playlist). - Thanks for your special acoustic Uke-Tutorial. To play the Riff in this way, it is a wonderful inspiration to us. - Thank you, you are a geat musican, Stu! 161likies

    Turning to D as a begginer/intermediate may not have been the best idea, but I'm enjoying learning more and attempting to transpose lol

    • @UkuleleZen
      @UkuleleZen  4 роки тому

      If you like the sound of D, go for it! One of my "Ask Stu" vids compares the two tunings....maybe you can just copy the frets & fingers & play it in theD tuning? Or - maybe have a 2nd uke for both tunings? A cheap one? Martin Smith UK-222-A Soprano Ukulele: amzn.to/2HSqjV7

    Is there any way you could do I love rock n roll by Joan Jett. . I can't find it anywhere. I found ONE video. And when I asked for them to explain it better. I got made fun of. I love the way you teach and would love to learn it.

    Damn it.. I was playing this on the C and E strings, as I learned on the interwebs. I really just clicked this video to get past the four first bars, and tried your version on the A string. I just realized how shit my uke sounds when i hit the high notes on the A string

      You can always play the riff on any open string Martin - the chords would be different - but go with what you like best!
