Buc McMaster Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Yes, still I play these silly little toys. No guitar in the house nor will there be. Just toys. Merry Christmas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qys1OkuQW2I&list=UU3tT5jzCvMj17IIpw3oVL9w (still can't seem to make the embed thing work.......)

j45nick Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Buc, that little Kamaka is a sweetheart! From looking at your videos, looks like you've really gotten into those great little toys. Still love your voice; still love your playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duluthdan Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Buc - excellent song, gotta learn this one. To get the video to imbed, Themis suggests a step in there somewhere for a shot of Bourbon. Nick is right about your voice - incredibly good.

duluthdan Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Apparently, Kentucky Bourbon is the ticket ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorrisrownSal Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I welled up. Thanks Buc. Stunningly beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Buc, this was great. I was blown away, however by your "I can see clearly now' . I don't know how you get such subtle chords out of that little thing. It was the uke my parents gave me one birthday that opened my eyes to making music. Super job!

j45nick Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 It was the uke my parents gave me one birthday that opened my eyes to making music. Super job! Now that you mention it, the first stringed instrument I ever played was a(n) ukulele my parents got us kids in a little stringed instrument shop in Mittenwald, Germany in about 1956. As I recall, it cost about 20 DM, which was about five bucks then. My older sister taught me four chords, and away I went. For all I know, she mays still have that little uke. I'll ask her the next time I talk to her. I loved it because it was kid-sized, and easy to play at the most basic level. I had completely forgotten about it until you made this reference. I can see it and hear it clear as day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 333 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Wow, that is really wonderful. All the compliments above are well deserved. A beautiful performance. Red 333 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Your turn to offer a version of River (gave mine yesteryear) and you sure take it safely home. It's a very good song in all its tristesse and blasé blueness - anti-x-mas mood with huge A. . I Can See Clearly is another fantastic tune - and you pinch that too. The flower-uke sounds cüüüühl in the intro. . Those 2 songs are from respectively 1971 and 72 - then of course we the Fabs from 1970 on the wall, , , eeeehhh for the nerds in reality 1969, , so you clearly presents us a time-pocket here. .

aerohead Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 1418687084[/url]' post='1602929']Those "silly little toys" don't sound silly or like toys at all. I would imagine some of them carry a big price tag too. Nice job Buc! Not sure if you take requests or not but I saw a guy do James Taylor's Fire and Rain at an open mic one time and blew the crowd away. I think you would really do that tune justice with your singing and ukelele skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOESTONE Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Thank you Buc. I'm playing my uke more these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
