Eddie Vedder

[eightyfour]

Disclaimer; I'm already a fully predetermined Eddie Vedder fan so not the most objective, but I love this cd. No flashy licks or studio effects, just a man, ukuleles, an amazing hypnotic voice and his thoughts in song. Try this cd on date night with good wine and seafood. I still love it loud, but on occasion a beautiful departure is abundantly welcome, and Ukulele Songs is a sweet breath of tradewind air. Thoughts?

I have it and love it. Raw and full of soul mixing in the string instruments was a very nice touch.

Someone told me it was bitchin...I'm gonna have to get it. Pearl Jam's last record was so good.

I may have to check it out, too. Coincidentially, just recently picked up a old Regal-made Stadium Baritone Uke, it's fun to play and very portable! Not just for Tip-Toeing Thru the Tulips, either..., it's good for just about any type of music, there's a LOT of covers with Ukes on YouTube. F'rinstance:

I have to pick it up. Got Into the Wild last month. Made me dig out my Mandolin to learn Rise.

I was talking to a friend about his ever shrinking instrument size; Dreadnaught - parlor - Mandolin - now a uke. Whats next? Jew's Harp?
