You are young, take it and keep on playing and learning. You can be great by learning so young. His spirit lives on! By standing on the shoulders of giants, it gives us an advantage. What's that even mean? Well it means that we can take someone's life work and further it and be even more advanced because they figured it out and put it all together for us. Allowing us to take it to the next level. Learning chord progressions and key changes as in Beyond the sea for example. Maybe something to work up to yet but learn the easier 3 or 4 chord stuff then work your way up. Or if you don't play anymore either that's fine but get back to it. 😊 Take care Bud and good luck!
Ukuele Mike was my main inspiration to pick up the instrument. His easy to follow tutorials made it a blast to learn. R.I.P Mike. I'm sure you are gracing the heavens with your beautiful music
Mick thank you for that blues tutorial. I have cancer, it's no big deal, it's just life. I got a Ukulele and have never played one so I'm doing something New by learning how to play. Your video was excellent. The chemo is affecting my fingers at the moment, but I am determined to get this down. Thanks again. Excellent .......Chris from Liverpool England.
Chris, I'm new to the uke too. I live with daily chronic and debilitating pain. I find the uke brings joy into my life! Sometimes, even on days when I can't play, I'll stop to strum nothing in particular, just to hear the melodious, happy sounds! I know chemo can make you feel lousy. I hope you have some good days too!
"The skies opened, and a shaft of light sought out and found my face - " This is the clearest, easiest, most accessible explanation of how to jam the blues I've ever seen! I might actually be able to do this; muchas gracias, Mike & Anthony!
I HAVE LOVED THIS!!! Especially little Anthony!!! I am 40 and learning the ukulele. Since I double majored in math and piano performance in college almost 20 years ago, I am teaching myself uke by watching videos. I bought one of your eBooks several months back and LOVE it!!! You have been a blessing to my musical journey and I am so appreciative!!!!
Fantastic. I love the backing track at the end. I had my first ever go at improvising and it didn't sound too bad. Never thought I would ever be able to improvise!!! I'm going to play this over and over. Thanks x
Mr. Ukulele Mike. I want to thank you for this very easy to follow and spirited tutorial. I am so happy right now because you taught me this pattern! I can jam to blues now...and you taught me that the pattern is the same along the fret board to accommodate the key. Improv is not so intimidating after recognizing the pattern. I thought that memorizing scales would be the only way to improv...but barriers were lifted by shining light to this pattern and I'm on my way to doing it! Thank you.
FANTASTIC! Thank you Mike for your videos. I had given up playing as all the books I bought were no good. You have inspired me to play and I have now played on stage after practising you are my sunshine for only an hour!
Thanks Mike, I am dork-beginner and having fun. Love the tone you are getting on the plug in Ukulele for the improv blues. I am big guy with large hands and a big heart. You make it fun, thanks! scotty
Thanks Mike, been playing guitar for years trying to learn improv blues and it just clicked when I watched this uke vid of yours! Loving the uke so much. I started w baritone uke because it was easy to learn the chords but got turned on to standard uke and now I know blues riffs, yay!,
This is FANTASTIC. thanks so much. I am just learning the Uke in my '60's but have always been a huge blues fan and this has opened up so many possibilities for me. why didn't we have a music teacher like YOU when I was school? Many thanks again - will be looking at your other stuff ASAP !!
So simple yet so patiently and clearly explained. Love the backing track idea at the end, and that of using 'real' players like yer man Anthony! Brilliant all round. Many thanks.

Anthony hi, are you still playing uke or the drums?
I never met the Man but I miss him already. He is still making new friends. Rest in Peace Brother.
