Ukulele Is The New Black


Sep 23, 2018

Today’s chat is with Geoff Skellams.  He plays some cool stuff:

“Afternoon Delight” – Bill Danoff (1975)

“The Redtail Hawk” – George Schroder (1975)

“Molehu” – Ozzie Katani

“Dragonfly” – A J Leonard

“Nanea Kou Maka I Ka Le'ale'a” – arrangement by Mark Kailana Nelson

And my attempt at fingerpicking was “Come Said the Boy” by Mondo Rock, written by Eric McCusker (1983)

The book Geoff mentions is Ozzie Kotani's book "Guitar Playing Hawaiian Style".

The Dan Gibson tune that really inspired Geoff to pick up the guitar: "Around The Campfire" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujSfne2MkHc
