Run, do not walk, to your nearest book dealer, music shop, or online store and get a copy of this book. I've been waiting for something like this since I've been playing ukulele (~ 2 years). It's terrific!

You simply must get this. I've had it a month and love it (Calluses blossoming). It definitely has some beginner songs -- e.g. "l Saw The Light" typically uses only 2 strings! "L-O-V-E" , intermediate IMHO, has a beautiful arrangement. "After You've Gone" is a lil tougher but worth all effort.

Hi James! I love Duets for One! What are the chances of you playing entire pieces, here? I don't need a whole lesson, but it would be great to be able to watch your fingering. I'm currently working on Georgia On My Mind, and even the short demo helped.

In your book, you often use 9th chords--In Georgia you use an E9 chord with 4645 and in After You're Gone, you use the same formation with the D9 chord--2425. When moving from the previous chord, what is the most efficient way of fingering these chords 1, 4, 2, 3 or 1, 3, 1, 2. Which do you use?

I'd buy this but I have a thumb issue which makes stuff difficult. I'm wondering if I'd be stuck with the Coldplay song or if there are workarounds to compensate so I can play the others? I know it wouldn't sound like the thumb but sometimes you just need to compromise.

The book is written for high-G but can be adapted for low-G. 99% of it works either way, there are just a few passages that use the 4th string to play melody. Those would need to be altered slightly. Uke on, Paul!

Other than a few moments that rely on the high-G string, most of the arrangements will work just fine on a low G uke. I grew up playing in low G (well, low A because of Canadian tuning) so I know it well. Enjoy!

I scan the music to my desktop and save as a PDF file to a sheet music folder on my desktop. Then I can zoom in and make it as big as it needs to be. It has been a godsend. With James' The Ukuleleway series, I didn't even need to do that much work. The sheet music was already there, and I only had to zoom in.
