Uke Chords for "Sweet Talkin' Guy" by the Chiffons . Here is a quickie version of what the chords sound like when I play'em. (The recording is in the key of 'B', these chords are in the uke key, 'G'.) Of course the problem I run into over and over with ukelele is I can figure out great chord voicings but I can't play well enough to play them in rhythm. Ukeleles are just so hard to even hang onto when you're playing!

From the ridiculous to the sublime, here is Guiomar Novaes performing selections from Mendelssohn's Songs Without Words, from Vox STPL 512.000, courtesy of the ReUse Center. The sound engineer for these recordings was Rudy Van Gelder of Blue Note Records fame.
