The guy in the second video playing the uke is much better then the first guy. His tone, technique and interpretation are more focused...especially the tone. The notes are clear and not muddied up. I used to play classical guitar, and it's a very difficult instrument to play. It's very physical and you need impecable technique to get it to sound good. The second guy had that.
 
The Ukeleile performance put a shiver up my spine.

Art, you're right. The guy is obviously at a point where he's got "Sympatico with the instrument"! Wonderful.
 
Okay, I'm not a "You Tuber" - where's the 2nd video?
 
Thanks Tony, He truly is fabulous isn't he!! EEEASY listenin'! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
 
WOW is right...Jake is very good indeed.

Here's a clip of one of my favorite classical guitarists.

Cuban born Manuel Barreuco /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Edit: BTW, Manuel has a recording...

"MANUEL BARRUECO PLAYS LENNON & McCARTNEY" Angel/EMI CDC 5 55228 2 (1995)
 
That was very nice Art! I wish it were longer... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
 
That is great Steve. His talent deserves all the recognition he can get!! That is the spirit good music fosters!!
 
I've seen the Uke guy before on Youtube and I agree he is great, but the first guy I posted is still my favorite. I am amazed at how many lines he is playing at once. Sounds like 3 guitars going at one time!
 
I really like that song!
