- James Hill rips it up at the Santa Cruz Ukulele Club on his recent West Coast tour. Recorded July 19, 2007 by Mike DaSilva. Thanks to James Hill for making this video available. www.ukulelejames.com for other videos.
This is the best version of this song imo.
Absolutely fantastic player
this one still impresses me even after all this time.
Whaaaat. It's like I'm impressed with his abilities and ashamed of my own at the same time.
We had James and Anne perform at our town just last week. He did this tune as the last of his set. Above is what he did in Sound Check. Miracle Man.
it would take years for me to be able to play something half as good as this James Hill is amazing!
How does this not have a million views yet?
My fingers cramped watching that.
He could tear holes in the universe with his ukulele.
I've seen a good handful of James' vids and this is easily one of his best.
Many of the other performances I have seen is pure technical showboating, but this really shows him getting into his song. Great stuff.
wow, james hill absolutely is one of the best uke players ever. he's a true virtuoso with exceptional and unique technique, without being a show off. sure, it's played at lightning fast speed, but it's not a trick, it's music. I wouldn't mind spending a couple of hours jamming with James - the best way to learn.
Brilliant!!! Looking forward to a workshop with James tomorrow at the Cheltenham Uke Festival
'Ripping it up'... is an understatement. ;-)
James, youre a frickin machine!!!
An inspiration to all the kids...
That is ridiculous speed and accuracy on his right hand, unbelievable strength on his left hand. Even if I had the skills to do that, I would have pulled a muscle a minute into the song.
he came to my school today, incredible
i swear to got this video is sped up or something....its just way too good to be real!
handsome, funny and oh so freakin talented... James you are off the hook !
Catherine
I am in awwee!! holy crap thats sweet
What amazes me most is that he can chat and carry on while playing.... :O:O skillzzzz
hes my hero '
holy shit, this guys on fire!
*Blown away*
How long would it take to learn this man, there are like a million different notes. What a badass.
That was AWESOME!
I love this! I love ukulele and this frozen boot!!!!!! ;D
WOW!!! If there is an spanish ukefest someday, James Hill has to be here!!! (and you, Marko)
handsome, funny and oh so freakin' talented... James you are off the hook !
Catherine
another 5 star performance
Haha I actually met him a while back and he signed my ukulele!
This guy is super human. What he's doing does not seem within the bounds of possibility.
james hill is my new favorite uke player :)
WOW. Amazing.
This guy is wicked!!!
I am in AWE.
superb skills!
WOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!
SHREDDER!
I'm not musical because my brain doesn't work fast enough to even hear all those notes, let alone play anything like them. Great fun and musical virtuosity. Ten out of ten.
That ukulele is currently havin an ukegasm! :D
4 string tenor custom made for James tuned to A D F# B. Its a ukulele.
Fantastic
Wow Amazing
People in the audience need to stop yelling nonsense out to the artist during a performance. There is a reason that he's on stage and you're not. Talent.
James is playing a free clinic on Tuesday April 6th, 4:30 at Long and Mcquade on Bloor St in Toronto. Bring your Uke.
well said.
peace
Trance-inducing.
Dayum.
I love how the camera can't pick up all his hand movements, he's so fast....
What a fucking cool guy.
James learned his folk techniques by playing with the best guitar and banjo players all around the world. One of his hero is another virtuoso name Troy Fernandez of Palolo, who was part of Ka'au Crater Boys.
WOW
I don't even like bluegrass and country for the most part, but this guy is just so awesome it's like he was born to play the ukelele
cooooool
I would really like to see him make use of a kickdrum, hi-hat, effects pedals, delay pedals, loops pedals etc. I think that would be amazing.
Fabulous! :-)
i have no idea how he goes so FAST!
Methinks his frozen boot just spontaneously combusted
Nope. I think I'll just stick to chords for now.
Eli Dodd holy snot man I had to snort coffee out thru my nose.. I'm still laughing
How about now? Tobias Elof just made a tutorial and tabs for this. Check it out! :)
i want to learn this sooo BAD!!
i wish james hill and jake shimabukuro could jam together sometime.. it would be called when "when west meets east ukulele style" i can c it now
Insnae ukelele folk shredding... never thought I would type that...
It's a custom tenor james hill G string ukulele.
@cwyuill I was talking about Jake. Not James.
AAAAAWWWWW BRAINBUG AWESOMNESS OVERLOADED
it's a new tune bluegrass style with a distinctly Canadian title - Ode to a Frozen Boot,, that's it.
Man! Don't you just hate those frozen boots!
6 people are guitarists
..... looks like he's in fast forward! O.O
He already does. They call it the "ozone layer" but just haven't figured out yet that he's causing it.
James is ukulele God... Jake Shimabukuro is incredible... but James "has it."
I'd love to see James Hill, Bela Fleck, and a mandolinist get together to do some collaborative fingerpicking. What an amazing sound that would be...
@patebrisee sooo true!
Its like the 20th time I've watched this vid, and I was JUST wondering that myself!!!! WTF?
@RyanFalls He's not a hipster. He's ACTUALLY Canadian! :D
3 people are deaf and angry that they can't hear him play this song
@NiBl5000 However, I don't think it's how complicated the song is that counts, it's the musical aspect of it, and I think Jake is much more musically interresting..
This clearly has 4 strings.. Its just definitely a ukulele..
works so well with a low res cam...can't keep up with'm.
do u know if theres any videos out there i can watch of them together?
@hukapuka1022 JAMES HILL WILL RULE THE WORLD
He's a robit.
@ChickenVendetta There are Canadian hipsters too.
wow, that's so fast, i can hardly believe it...
U came to my elementary school in '10 k-park
he just wondered if anyone had those moments, because he forgot which way to turn the peg haha, anything else? your hearing is deffinantly kind of off !
@snakeweirdo his nameis james
If you think frozen boot is bad, try losin one in a bog 5 miles out in Newfoundland , chasin a fox trying to hide in Moose tracks, and I didn't even get the sock back
wach lullaby of birdland it is awesome
He said this song is inspired by a canadian song or something,what song was it??
@hukapuka1022 this guy is definately more relaxed and realistic than Jake ... Jake is very refined. I'd like to play an eighth as good as either, but I would lean toward this style myself.
@bonbon3021 G string ukuleles. Derek Shimizu.
he kinda looks like a dallas green no? i used to go to school with him, well i was in his sisters grade, but still, he can fuckin rip!!!!
oh james... what the hell... you are insane...
Oh shit
That would make my Moose run loose thanks /IncredableEverything
Does he use a custom ukulele? If so what brand?
Excuse while I pick up my jaw.... Man alive, I need to practice.... or give up!
@filecabinet33 Same! :D
