[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thank you for listening.

[@Drewtazy]

Very Nice, there is nothing quite so touching and civil as men peacefully singing and making music !

[@ExDJrocksquaddie]

Thankyou very much for posting this, lump in the throat while listening, great vocals and as always superb sounds

[@PhilUSAFRet]

Beyond Awesome! Not too many of these in a lifetime!

[@JasielCalixtoMusic]

I would listen to this endlessly

[@wehappyfewmusic]

Brilliant. Love the addition of the lapslide guitar!

[@canoedan]

Love it Ken!! Lap steel was very complimentary to the ukulele. A very enjoyable performance, thanks for sharing.

[@drbekken]

This is the finest post yet, Mr Middleton. I absolutely LOVE it.

[@waynesalter65]

Hey guys you make really beautiful music..... Wonderful 🙂

[@antoniaworbridge]

Hi Ken, very nice relaxed playing greetings antonia

Glad you are enjoying them, Raggy.

[@songandancedaisy]

This is inspired, and so sweet! Watching for a repeat performance!

[@catslaffn]

OMG such great tones and harmony! Excellent recording!

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks. I have played with Gerald and Hal several times before, but never together. I don't know when all three of us will meet again. I shall perform with Gerald at the WCUF in September though.

[@Dominatoruke]

Really enjoyed this Ken.

[@shahbazishar]

[@jmolly100]

The song sounds great by the way.

[@Hogi-Music]

So nice! Greetings from Bavaria!

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thank you. I love Bavaria. Regensburg is one of my all-time favourite cities.

[@Hogi-Music]

@@KenMiddletonUkuleleHi Ken, I also have a version of your beautiful song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5Daf2ehp7Gjf80

[@ukeattitude]

Good job guys ! ;-) Thanks

[@PraiseMandolin]

Very nice! Would you tell me the make and models of the Ukuleles please? All 3 instruments great.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks, as always.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks very much for watching.

[@jmolly100]

I have a soprano ukulele but I tune it to Bb so I can accompany myself with a harmonica. I was wondering if I could still do that if I got a set of living water strings.

[@mypintofview]

Ey, you're cool, boys. Like your style.... Kep on playing...

[@carolyndanhardt]

I absolutely love your voice :-)

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

many thanks.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

You're right. Thanks for the comments.

[@TheWildlifeStudio]

Yes, That was good!

[@cliffordraven3325]

very nice, definately one for the birds.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks so much. I have played many times with both Hal and Gerald, but never altogether. Let's take the first opportunity we get and do a live jam together DrB.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks Dom. We had a bunch of fun at this festival.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thank you.

[@ukedaman]

Super!

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thank you, Antonia.

[@mypintofview]

Ey, 8 years later, like it still.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Many thanks for your support.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks Dan.

[@FloydBlue]

Great stuff. Interesting strumming by Hal. How is it called? Slap or snap strum, or something else?

[@ukulelelearner]

How would these sound on a solid spruce top and rosewood sides? probably bright?

[@pkijan]

Poseidon, Hefaiston and Dionysos together! Very nice!

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Which one am I?

[@pkijan]

Well, you are producing very nice sounding strings.. you must be the Hefaiston

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Wow! Thanks very much for that comment.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

thanks.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

I used a Zoom H4n for the recording. All the Zoom recorders work well.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Hal is playing an Ohana TK-50G, I am playing an Ohana TK-35G and Gerald is n't playing a ukulele. He is playing a Fender lap steel.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

He just decided to do it on this song.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Yes, Gerald play it well.

[@PraiseMandolin]

Thanks!

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Yes, it's a sad song, isn't it?

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

I think the 1st and 4th will be too floppy in Bb tuning. Get a tenor set and fit them to your soprano. The strings are a bit thicker and should work fine.

[@drbekken]

It would be a pleasure.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

We'll try, but we live in three different countries.

[@reckonimokie123]

What lap steel & tuning are you playing?

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

Gerald is playing an old Fender Student model, I think. Not sure about the tuning.

[@2MrBanana]

lovely dady lol.

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]

And Gerald too.

[@Drewtazy]

Very nice, there is nothing quite so

[@kothilsp]

[@KenMiddletonUkulele]
