That glass-shattering high note that Minnie Riperton sings is impossible for most people, but I found a ukulele solution. Hope you like it. |

That was great John! I liked the rhythmic strum sound and the high part.
By the way, what kind of uke is that?

| John that was wonderful. I like how you did those high notes. I also want to study that sweet strum you have. Uke sounded great. Very smooth on the vocals. I like this song & your singing.

| Bulk, there is a way to get around the work computer limitations. Are you on a laptop with wireless capabilities, or do you have a wireless card or built in wireless connection if it's a desktop?

| Before you get around the work computer limitations, review your employment contract or your attorney. Better to keep the job than to get around anything. IMHO.

| That's good advice singndance. I probably should stay out of it.

Nevermind guys (and gals), I am now at home and did indeed get to see/hear it. Great production as usual John, but I kinda felt cheated not hearing you strain for them high notes, hee hee!
But certainly good uke playin' to cover that high vocal riff!
