In August of 2009, my family rented a beach house for a week on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan at Sturgeon Bay. I packed my Talsma tenor ukulele and my portable Zoom H4N digital recorder. My plan was to record solo ukulele songs using traditional 1920-1950's recording techniques. I've always admired the musicians of that era and their ability to go into the studio and play a song from start to finish flawlessly, starting over if they made a mistake. Here's what I did... My "studio" was an upstairs bedroom with a panoramic view of Lake Michigan - not bad, eh? At 7am, Monday - Friday. I recorded twelve songs in sequence. I recorded each song once (and only once) during that day's session. If wasn't happy with my performance or made a mistake during the cut, I would not record a retake until the next day's session.

Gerald - Sounds good! The first time I heard Maria Elena was on a Chet Atkins album, all nylon string stuff - can't remember the name, it's boxed away waiting for me to get to it to digitize it. Black and White Rag is good, too - we've done that a time or two at our OT music circle, guitar, fiddle and banjo. The only problem, I can't find the download link for the freebe

Thanks BB! All you have to do is save each tune to your computer. You can then put them on your Ipod etc.

Thanks Mark, Yeah, Milwaukee in two weeks! That should be a fun time. I haven't planned out my set list yet. Maybe some of these tunes will be in it, hmmm?. See you there.
