Ukulele Jim's Ukulele Junk

Cry Baby Cry.

My latest recording on the Zoom is one of my favorite Beatles tunes. I recorded it in my car in a restaurant parking lot while waiting for some Italian take-out.

I really just wanted an excuse to double-track my vocals.

My new toy.

Recently I got myself a Zoom H4 portable multi-track recorder so I could start recording the progress of my ukulele playing. It’s really slick and is really easy to use.

I tested it out by recording my rendition of Eric Clapton’s “Wonderful Tonight”. I think the quality of the Zoom sounds pretty darn good.

I just wrote this little jingle yesterday for my comic book publisher Dial R Studios for their New Year’s podcast. It’s not Grammy material but I like to think it’s not bad for my first venture into songwriting and recording.

I call it “Luau at Dial R”. (I apologize for the quality.)

Happy New Year, everyone.
