    • Episode 76 - Pure Heart
    Up next is one of Pure Heart's favorite songs to play. Bodysurfing is a song originally performed by the legendary ukulele master, Herb Ohta.
    What makes this version special is that it highlights the amazing ukulele skills of Jake but we also get to see Lopaka showcase his talents as a percussionist during his fantastic solo.
    Here's a bit of behind the scenes info...at the very end of the song, Lopaka turns over his rain stick. What you don't see because the video fades out is that the rain stick goes on FOREVER! It was going on so long that all three of them and the crew stared at the thing waiting to see how long it would continue, all the while trying not to laugh so we wouldn't ruin the take.
    Pure Heart is:
    Lopaka Colon - percussions and bird calls
    Jake Shimabukuro - ukulele
    Jon Yamasato - guitar and vocals

    Every single time I watch this group it bring me back to middle school in an instant, it's amazing. Jon Yamasato - Cool as a Cucumber with a Hawaii laid back style Lopaka Colon - Such ingenuity when playing the bongos, drums, chimes and bird calls Jake Shimabukuro - Dude still rocks the stage like he's back in HS. This is why Pure Heart - Remains in my top bands collection till this day. So, please cut a new album, if not ... thank you for giving me a change to reminisce.
