While my ukulele gently weeps
funky-monkz, one of the founders of Guitar Guild Davao, alerted the group to this video of Jake Shimabukuro playing "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" on the ukulele. The late great George Harrison, who wrote the song, was also a mean uke player, so this tribute to him makes a whole lot of sense. This just goes to show that you don't need fancy guitars and equipment -- or even six whole strings -- to make great music.
