In this lesson we break down the basic ukulele chords to the jazz standard Bye Bye Blackbird and then try it along with the band. Written in 1926 by Mort Dixon and Ray Henderson this song is best know from the 1957 Miles Davis recording.
Join the Magic Ukulele Club where we'll be learning this tune all month including the chord changes I play in the video from the Miles Davis Verison, the Red Garland Introduction and outro on ukulele, Paul Chambers Bassline for U bass players with PDF Downloads, Backing Track and more than an hour of instruction.
Each month we take a deep dive into a new jazz standard adding to our library of over 200 lessons.:
