It's Caroline - Leaning on a Lamppost!



I asked my banjolele friend Caroline Robson, whom I met at the last GFS convention, to let me study her version of Leaning on a Lamppost - she's so much better than me, I can't keep up with this... she tells me that the solo doesn't have all the right chords in it, but I think this is pretty darned impressive - and fast! Don't you? I think it'll be a very long time before you see my version! But I'm working on this.....and that Gibson UB2 is lovely.......

Thanks for letting me post this, Caroline! I know it will be enjoyed!

    1. Glad you're enjoying your new-found world of uke! The Formby solos are very skilful... Caroline is a good friend of mine, on the same journey..... the Formby style is a journey all of its own! Thanks for your kind comments, much appreciated!
