Not such a great singer but, my goodness, what a musician, held in very high esteem by George Harrison and his peers and all-round "good egg".

[@ToddLorencUkuleleMusic]

Awesome guy, humble and fun! He played I’ll see you in my dreams at the concert for George and it was so emotional and inspirational! He and George are the two catalysts for me to play!!!

[@1wannabee1]

Joe is 1 of these very rare people that..................... I dont know what it is but, they just make you smile and you instantly feel good. Its uncanny really but,what a truly talented bloke and just an extremely luvlee human being.

[@MrArthurdog]

I've had the honour of meeting him a couple of times. Absolutely lovely guy and boy can he play and can he tell a story too.

[@nevrens]

Why has Joe Brown never been knighted after all the enjoyment he's given people over the years.

A fantastic musician and wonderful entertainer, I saw him in a Torquay theatre years ago he had the audience in the palm of his hand. Spellbinding, very witty and all in all a lovely warm man

[@jackthebassman1]

[@chequemated]

Great lesson Joe.. thanks Joe. I am doing a funeral on Thursday in Liverpool for a lovely lady that I entertained in her Nursing home. Her daughter asked me to sing "I'll see you in my dreams"... I'll be playing the guitar... all the chords are geared for the uke and I need to simplify it... any tips?... cheers Joe

[@gwynnewell7397]

i grew up on joe, legend, thanks joe for the years

[@alneal100]

A very unassuming, and decent soul, is Joe Brown. He was around when I was a kid, and I am 59 now.

[@mikecartlidge5355]

I can remember as a kid in the early 1960's listening to Joe Brown's records on a Dansette record player, Picadilly record label, watched What a crazy world we're livin' in at the pictures. In my late 60's now, still have those records and still love Joe's music........wonderful guy.

[@huskvarsm]

joe i luv ya mate so much music such a great soul you are a part of what makes british music so great going back to joe brown and the bruvvers aah memories.

[@zetalyn]

How lovely to see you doing this on here. Loved you in the 60s. I am a very late starter. I am sure some of your tips will be useful. Thank you Joe. x

[@mladenamilovanovic1194]

hey ,if anyone else is searching for easy ukulele songs for beginners free try Panlarko Amazing Uke Planner (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my neighbor got cool success with it.

[@josephparkes6905]

Great musician loved all his records. my favourite was A Picture Of You

[@leechild4655]

Its great to have past up the ukulele for so many years playing guitar and discover wow, you play anything on it.

[@BirdmanNorfolk]

Inspired me to take up the uke, brilliant guy, I am going to see him live very soon, can't wait !

[@pseudopetrus]

Joe, I think you are the best on the uk! Love your music, I hope one day to play the ukulele. Thanks, Peter from Canada.

[@BobTaile]

Lovely bloke with a lovely, talented family. I've been looking for a Joe Brown JBS OR JBT for years, but I can not find one. Anyway. Joe is a legend as are The Brovers. When you get the chance to see them -- do not miss the unique opportunity for a truly brilliant and entertaining evening. 👏

[@terencebarrett2897]

Joe's a real natural talented lovely bloke,

[@gregsmith1641]

Never heard of joe brown just found him now. What a boy, was smiling all throughout video.

[@lostsoleful]

I love the uke and, the funny thing is, I usually like people who play the uke. There is often something "cheeky northerner" about them that makes them likeable. George Formby was the first and the best, of course. Me and my girlfriend (now wife) were listening to When I'm Cleaning Windows the first time we made love.

[@tonyx8750]

Fantastic, the ukulele makes me smile instantly !

[@1kokoone]

Greetings from San Francisco! Thanks ever so much for warm and fun lesson, Cheers!

[@DerekLyons]

Brilliant , I love Joe Brown!

[@lindawestmore]

I have a Uke that friend bought me. I haven't yet really tried to play it. JB has just encouraged me to give the poor dust covered creature a play,

[@Spaseebo]

Joe Brown was born on May 13, 1941 in Swarby, Lincolnshire, England as Joseph Roger Brown. Great entertainer.

[@espr7564]

Joe is an awesome entertainer !

[@tomfissler6953]

This guy looks so happy when he's strumming away on the uke . I like that example 2 he does

[@debhulks]

Nice, just bought his CD of ukelele music and it is great.

[@peterwood-jenkins3634]

Nice one Joe I prefer The Banjo Ukulele Its louder and i hold it high and sing at the same time as well Split Stokes that Formby mastered a mixture of roles and down down up down down up down finger and thumb

[@michaelbush245]

Joe would make a great teacher!

[@ukuleletheatre]

I like that advice on the 'scissor movement' gonna practise it me-self...cheers joe...

[@phreddcatt]

Falls under the fingers! Brilliant!

[@benters3509]

WHAT a lovely man!

[@ukuleletheatre]

hi Joe time to intruduce ourselves, we are the 'Ukulele theatre' and have been inspired by you to play a version of "I'll see you in my dreams' and much more too...hope to speak soon,Dennis of Uke theatre band...

[@Jordie0001]

only 4mins 44 seconds and i could listen to Joe go on much longer than this no matter what the subject. a diamond geezer

[@CornishCockney]

He got me playing the uke - so glad I did.

[@gerrycoogan6544]

One look at Joe Brown's face, especially when he smiles, tells you that he must be one of the loveliest men who ever walked the earth.

[@veganvocalist4782]

Ahhhhhhhhh I love this guy and his daughter Sam is just as sweet and down to Earth and she is the Bomb when it comes to vocals ;D really lovely family

[@jamescassidy3995]

Gotta love Joe 💖

[@Lincslad]

A true gent. The fact he was accepted as a close friend of George says it all for me. Oh! And the fact he was born in Lincolnshire!

[@clarkjojo005]

When are you coming to Australia, and don't forget the Brisbane, even better make it to the Sunshine Coast. Best Wishes for Christmas.

[@Ozmulki]

His Live in Liverpool concert was superb.

[@mikewilliams258]

Just seen him in Truro. He's truly amazing. Anyone who gets the chance should go and see him.

[@TheDelboyoelmundo]

turned out nice again !

[@salvadormarley]

Wonderful bloke

[@johnaustin1825]

Joe is a Londoner what more can you say. I I grew up in Battersea and I've just bought a Banjolele which I've tuned to the top 4 strings as a guitar or Baritone uke. Any tips Joe?

[@tombstoneharrystudios584]

Only 5 minutes but a superb Masterclass

[@charangosurf]

Come and play in Norwich Joe please!!!!!!!!!!

[@MrKaywyn]

I loved his appearance in The Concert For George and its' documentary.

[@FJMLAM]

Such a nice guy

[@philipshaw9485]

I often think here comes the sun was written on a Uke, it alll just sits nicely on the G chord. George claims to have written it at the bottom of garden on a guitar but given george's love of the Uke I'm not so sure

[@PipkinDog5]

Come to Andover the Lights and do a show at my theatre, well the one I work in

[@troya9693]

Dark Town Strutter's Ball would be good on the ukelele! I'd love to know what chords Joe is using in Example 2 - fantastic.

[@billfishoc]

He's playing "5'2" C,E7,A7,D7,G7,C (G7) Repeat Bridge E7,A7,D7,G7

[@alexcarter8807]

"Joseph Roger "Joe" Brown, MBE is an English entertainer. He has worked as a rock and roll singer and guitarist for more than five decades. He was a stage and television performer in the late 1950s and a UK recording star in the early 1960s." - Huh. Never heard of the guy. Seems like a friendly bloke tho'

[@SpeccyMan]

He's a diamond geezer as we say down sarf ;)

[@jonathanbender4691]

Brilliant.

[@bernadetteharakati5267]

Bought his first guitar off my great uncle George Dance.. so im told uncle George taught him to play aswell :-)

[@zombeatle01]

He has said several times that he tunes like a guitar, so does he really mean D-G-B-E (low to high)? I always see the tuning given as g-C-E-A.

[@spedia4217]

zombeatle01 Tuned like a guitar at the 5th fret, gCEA, or a baritone ukulele where the strings are tuned like the 4 high strings of a guitar, DGBE

[@allenphillips8132]

Jo you are a star wonderful man love you always

[@1224JOHND]

lovely guy as good as you get

[@gerrycoogan6544]

Yep. A beautiful spirit and a diamond geezer.

[@The4thDensity]

His daughter Sam is equally as talented. Fantastic singing voice.

[@victorhugomartinezmoreno1497]

Wath is the name of the song for the example 2? Please something answer!!

[@colinfrance6926]

A lovely bloke is Joe as is his "dad" Marty Wilde (as he jokes).

[@BanggoodTV]

You make a very interesting video about ukulele and ukulele and Harmonica ,and I also often upload some videos made by myself. Maybe we can subscribe and share ideas to each other .I'm the owner of the Banggood KZbin Channel.

[@funkmystar]

That's just really clever and brilliant I'm going to get one f*** it

[@1viva]

Is he playing a Kala?

[@nige-g]

Good bloke. 🇬🇧

[@billgreen576]

When Joe says 'anybody' can, what he means is anybody who has some music experience. I speak as someone trying to learn the Uke as a total non musician.

[@Diggyace14]

So basically Paul is still alive?

[@viniciusmarcilio3194]

Does someone know the chord progression from example 2? Tks

[@viniciusmarcilio3194]

"Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue" .. or simply "Has anybody seen my girl" .. The song is known by those two names apparently.

[@ShadySidebury]

C, E7, A7, D7, G7, C F, C

[@billfishoc]

C,E7,A7,D7,G7,C (G7) Repeat Bridge - E7,A7,D7,G7

[@viniciusmarcilio3194]

@@billfishoc thanks! Who would’ve thought someone would give me the answer 7 years later! ☺️ Thank you sir!

[@robbiefreeman1806]

Does anybody know the name of the song he is playing in example 2?

[@AlbertAC54]

Sure -- he mentions it at the end of that example: it's Has Anybody Seen My Gal... written in 1914, it was VERY popular in the 1920s and really captures the feeling we identify with that timeframe

[@billfishoc]

"Five Foot Two"

[@lyndamcardle4123]

It ought to be noted here (as a general observation) is that Joe here is playing the smallest size of ukulele ....namely a sopranino (even smaller than the "smallest" conventional 21" soprano ukulele) so it is "really tiny".......

[@animateangus]

I bet if George Harrison was still with us, he’d have made a ukulele album with Joe.

[@duanecolegrove]

Him and George Harrison was very good friends is it possible he's the one that got George interested in this instrument

[@kevvome]

I play some guitar...badly, but I'd love to give the ukelele a try. It must be easier than a guitar as it has only 4 strings. I'm a big fan of Joe. He's unpretentious and one very talented guitarist. He once backed Johnny Cash and Joe played a couple of twangy fancy chords and Johnny fired him for it! He gave Joe his job back but it put me off Johnny Cash for being so petty and mean. He was more than likely jealous of Joe's guitar playing. Plays a mean 12 string guitar too I have heard. He's never been involved in any scandal so I agree that yeah, he should be knighted. It would make a great change from bloody civil servants getting a 'Sir' in front of their name for writing to the queen telling her how great she is. Sir Joe Brown.....it rolls off the tongue better than anyone else's name does. Arise Sir Joe!

[@mrbillhicks]

2:23 If you can watch Joe playing and not smile along with him then shame on you is all I can say.....

[@corinadantes1711]

I agree. What is he playing in that moment?

[@Menghevoli]

You better tune it !

[@SpeccyMan]

Next thing you know, you'll be teaching ducks to quack.

[@gahloot]

Joe has teeth made out of Ukulele wood!

[@marleybutler4633]

I tune GCEA

[@grahamjames5618]

Joe - I know at least 2 people who couldn't play a uke tune after 5 weeks!!!! Tune a day? Nah!!!!!!!!!

[@leescott2069]

Awesome guy played with everyone who's anyone very humble,and then you have a guy like Kanye west who not so humble and not so talented but seems to want to tell the world he's the next Shakespeare? Don't it seems like those with a lot of talent don't talk much about it and those who have little to non can't stop talking about it .Joe got more talent in is little finger than than most of theses so called artist today.the toughest guy in the room is usally the quitest the weakest guy is the one telling everyone he's the toughest .

[@SpeccyMan]

Kayne West hasn't the talent of a squirt of Shakespeare's piss mate!

[@williamorrah9613]

Hmmmm he reminds me of Bricktop. I can't see him without thinking of him feeding people to pigs.

[@classicartfoundation639]

East London accent

[@DronePsyche]

How many want to buy a uke after watching this.

[@maximilian1922]

Na mach´ich doch gleich mal!

[@JoLeng205000]

Hi Joe Brown, You are as man as an Ukulele! Please call me when you are in Singapore! Singapore top Ukulele Jo.

[@RackwitzG]

I think he should have tuned it.

[@mkdy218]

Love Joe. But you cannot play a Uke in a day.... no,non,niet

[@paulhayward4383]

he always seems a stroppy git

[@SpeccyMan]

If that is so then I would politely suggest you have serious lack of comprehension skills.

[@andyelliott8027]

That appears to apply to you.
