George was asked to do a photo shoot for Rolling Stone magazine. George was ambivalent about going because they had written a bad review about his last album. Someone at the magazine said, " If you want to put George in a good mood, just have a few ukuleles around. So they did. When George got there, of course a crowd gathered. George picked up the ukes and started singing one song after another. The photographer, who had shot almost all the famous rock stars, was in awe. He said, "That's when I realized I was in the presence of greatness."
What a great story, thank you for sharing that, Christopher! I’ll bet if you’d got George on the subjects of Ukuleles, Gardening or car racing he’d have talked for hours!
This was wonderful. I learned so much about George Harrison l never knew. Recently, l purchased a ukulele. I love playing it. I cannot put it down. My only regret was not buying one when l was younger.
Hi Channa, glad you enjoyed the video. There’s a gentleman who comes to my Uke group. He only took up the Uke when he was 86 and he’s now nearly 94! I’m making a case for the ukulele having restorative properties which can add years to your life! 😂
@@GetStrumming You may be onto something. I started learning the uke a few weeks ago (57 until later this year) and my family says that they haven't seen me this happy in many years. I don't know what it is, but this little instrument seems to have some positive magical powers 🙂
@@libelle8124 -I think because it’s so dainty and you hold it close to you, it’s almost like clutching on to a teddy or a comfort blanket. Guitars are like that too. Very tactile instruments, whereas with a piano you a literally almost pushing it away from you. I also think the Uke is a great instrument as you tend to get quick results. My friend Leonard is 94 in September and he only started playing when he was 87! Within 6 weeks of playing he’d learned lots of chords and was learning songs other than the ones I was teaching him! I’m not a particularly religious guy, but I do feel that music has an almost ethereal quality. Everything has its own vibration and maybe the sound vibrations of music interact with our own which makes us feel good? I’ll have to look into the science!
@@GetStrumming The language of the universe. The number of notes. The number of planets, their orbits around the sun are equal to intervals. There is a connection. Look up the experiments with water and sound (notes) by Lauterwasser. I watched documentaries where scientists spoke of the "finely tuned universe". There is definitely something to it.
Saw a video of George playing "isn’t it a pity" guitar capoed at 5th fret playing on 4 strings i.e. a uke. I realize this is about George but noticed years ago "Mrs. Brown" is done the same way with a hanky to limit sustain (Herman and Hermits’.) and with some formby strumming.
WOW! I started playing ukulele a few weeks ago as my first instrument and in between practising and nursing my aching fret-fingers, I watch a read up about this instrument. Thank you for this video. I had no idea in what great company I am learning this always happy instrument.
Hi Libelle! Sorry for the late reply. You are in esteemed company if you’re a Uke player! Hope you’re fingers are aching less now and please let me know if you have any songs you’d like me to teach.😊👍🏻
What a brilliant, pleasant and full of memories video. Thank you so much for all of this and also for your amazing, inspiring playing of this fantastic instrument!!!!
Hi Joanna! Thanks for the lovely comments. I loved putting this together as I love George’s music (as you can probably tell!) I also put together a video of Paul McCartney’s usage of the Uke elsewhere on this channel. Obviously George was the big Uke fan, but Paul also used it on ‘Ram On’ and many of his songs really suit the Uke treatment!😊👍🏻
What a wonderful podcast! Thanks for taking the time to do this. I had no idea George Harrison was into ukuleles that much (and I grew up with the Beatles). This has inspired me to name one of my ukes after George (both of them)!
Hi Lisa! Thank you and really appreciate the comment. Yes, I thought it was a story definitely worth telling as we tend to think of George being a guitarist but he was really into the Uke by the late 80’s. There’s something really disarming about the Uke and as he said, you can’t play them without smiling!😊👍🏻
@@GetStrumming I completely agree! Playing the ukulele always makes me smile. I've actually bought three Ukes since I started playing just last August. It's quite addictive (in a good way)!
Great video. Harrison actually owned two Formby ukes; a Ludwig Crown and a Dallas D. The one that went to the Beatles museum (a Dallas E), was apparently not Formby’s.
Cheers for that, Angus. Wow, I didn’t know that. So, the Dallas E was a Uke that did belong to Harrison but not Formby then. Thanks for this info.😊👍🏻👍🏻
This is great Dom. I really enjoyed it and your knowledge about The Beatles is admirable. I always felt that George was under rated in the group, but didn't realise he played such a big part and was that much into ukeing. My favourite of his was always My Sweet Lord and there is another solo of his I love but can't remember the title! Thanks for a great Podcast.
Thank You for a fantastic video stroll down the magical memory lane. Fell into a rabbit hole of Ukulele wonder and am grateful it included your youtube channel. Now a sub and will be checking out your other contributions. Thx for reminding me of things I had forgotten and enlightening me of others.
Hi Anita! My pleasure and thank you for the sub! I really enjoyed putting this video together as George is right at the top of the tree for me. Please let me know if you have any song tutorial requests as I’m always interested to hear what my subscribers are wanting to learn. Thanks again Anita!😊👍🏻
Well Tyler, that’s a huge compliment sir! I always found George’s songs the most suited to my voice. If you ever get chance, check out George and Paul Simon duetting on Homeward Bound. Beautiful version.
Great video, had to watch it twice since the audio levels were quite low. George was playing Chet Atkins style guitar. Chet was considered one of the best country guitarists. And he gave out the Chet Atkins Certified Guitar Player Award. There were a select few that were certified. Tommy Emmanuel, Steve Knowles, Jerry Reed, Steve Mariner and Paul Yandell.
Hi Lawrence and a Happy New Year! I’m glad you enjoyed this little video I put together. It was a few years back now and I’m afraid the mic quality wasn’t too brilliant. Chet Atkins was amazing, wasn’t he! Did you ever see his rendition of ‘Ill see You In My Dreams’ with Mark Knopfler?
@@GetStrumming Great album, I bought it with great anticipation. That was back before You Tube. Have you seen the Carl Perkins concert? Dave Edmunds and George arranged it, Eric Clapton, the Stray Cats, Roseanne Cash, Ringo. Carl was moved to tears at the end. But the best part was that George had a YUGE smile cuz he was playing with his idol.
@@GetStrumming it was a great video for sure and as someone pointed out you do sound just like George when you sing !. I changed my name from Harold to Harri as a small tribute to George for he was a grand Indevigal ,during and after the Beatles have almost everything he every released. Not to mention his love of the ukulele ! Looking forward to watching your other videos Sir Thank you for what you do and post and for making the ukulele shine every so brightly in your hands and stories as it is deeply appreciated !
@@harrijoy2039 Thank you for the very kind words, Harri and I think George would be touched by your tribute to him too! Way back when I was in my mid-teens I was constantly trying to copy the Beatles voices. I could never quite get John’s nasal twang and Paul’s voice was too high for me to pull off a decent impression, but George’s voice was closest to mine and his songs suit my own vocal range. I find it amusing that when my peers were listening to Pearl Jam and Nirvana I was fanatical about The Beatles!
Thanks for pointing out George's slide guitar solo on Belinda Carlisle's Leave A Light On from her 1989 album Runaway Horses. It's the first song on the album and became a global hit. I found Belinda Carlisle - Leave A Light On (Official HD Music Video) on her TH-cam channel and at 3:06 you can hear George's distinctive sweet smooth sound, it's unmistakable.
Apparently George said it was his favourite solo he ever performed! It is a belter, isn’t it! Another little factoid here: He was asked to do the slide solo for Robbie Williams Angels, but couldn’t make it so Bootleg Beatle George, Andre Barreau (who sadly passed away last year) performed it.
If you look carefully at the ukulele that George Harrison is playing in the "Devil and The Deep Blue Sea" video th-cam.com/video/iMJEtLjnO7E/w-d-xo.html , you'll see that his ukulele isn't a 4-string baritone. It has 6 tuning pegs, so it's a 6-string ukulele. Looking at the courses of strings along the neck, it doesn't seem to be a guitalele.
Wow, well spotted! Yes, you’re absolutely right. I’ve just looked it up and George was playing a Kamaka Liliu six-string ukulele in low-G tuning! I apologise for my error there and glad you’ve brought it up. 😊👍🏻
I love your show and subscribed. You are grrreat!! I’m searching for 2 ukuleles for my 7 and 8 year old grandsons for Christmas gifts. Trying to decide on brand?? Do you know George’s fav, anyone, please, please help me!! Soon!!
Hi Kathryn! Thank you so much and I’m really happy to hear you enjoyed the podcast. George liked Kamaka ukuleles. and he also had a Ludwig Wendell Hall banjo uke which he played a lot. For your Grandson’s I would recommend getting them the Soprano sized ukes. They’re the smallest and will be easier for them to play. I personally would go for the Makala range.
