This is a YouTube video of a group doing a number in the home of Phil Morris. Phil and his business partner build the very special Spanky Banjo Ukes http://www.spankyukes.com/ and Spanky is the sponsors for the Wahooligans , http://www.thewahooligans.com/ a group that are the headliner for a couple of the Dallas Uke Festivals concerts in the years past. For those event, they incorporate Gordon McLeod as part of the group.
Here is Gordon and his wife, Dirje (of the Wahooligans), and Kelly showing how a good banjo uke can cut it in a group. Jeff has been saying that his banjo uke is well received in his OKC jams and this is proof.
It's the Hot Club of Wahoo! This is a fabulous video, I'll have to look up more of the Wahooligans.
ReplyDeleteWith the Gold Tone uke of Jeff's, my 1928 era Gretch and Blayne's super Spanky, we have the makings of a banjo band.
ReplyDeleteNot quite like that of the Heftones Banjo Orchestra, I supect, but noisy in the banjo uke way. .http://www.heftone.com/orchestra/music_box_rag/
(Brian plays the uke, banjo uke and works at Elderly.)
