| I have been badgering Jon to do a version of Surder Girl (Beach Boys_) ever since I first heard his Don't Worry Baby cover on the Uke. This is another 5 star effort Jon. A real big thankk you for doing this, you did the song, the arrangement and the vocals proud. Just out of interest Jon, Surfer Girl was the very first song I learnt on the Ukulele. dave Maclean a big J Pak fan. |

Hi, Dave! Thanks for your encouragement and support. Wow, I think "Surfer Girl" is kind of challenging for anybody learning the uke because of the key change before the last verse.
Here's the link:

Thanks for the feedback! Really appreciate it! The soundtrack on this one took a lot of time, so I'm glad you like it.
PB, I surfed the Internet looking for those surfer girl pictures to use in my video. It was a tough job, but somebody had to do it!

| That was excellent John. You do such a good job on the song and the uke and the video. Although, those photos of girls will drive me to the gym this afternoon.

| Going to the gym didn't do much for me, but I watched your video again and learned from your video. I realized how simple your strum is and decided I would devote the next two weeks or so to simplify my strum. Is this a metaphor for life?

Thanks, Charlie! Looking forward to seeing you later this month!
Thanks for your comments, singndance! That's about as simple a strum as there is. Ha ha!
The left hand really has a little bit of a challenge. Near the end of the song, there's E and Eb, and the change from Ab to Abm6 takes a little bit of practice, well at least for me.
