We've all seen that iconic video of George Harrison, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr Sitting in the park playing 'Ain't She Sweet', right? Did you ever wonder what was so distinctive about george's playing? In this lesson we'll decode that right hand and see that he was really giving a nod to one of his own musical Idols: George Formby. George Harrison was making great use of Formby's Thumb Roll Triple as well as Split stroke throughout the song. What if you just want to strum along with the chords? I've got you covered there as well :)

Quite a job, catching up to old George! He was a guitar fanatic, was rumored to even practice while on the loo, and think of how many years that was! That strumming style comes from a performer of the 1930s and 40s named George Formby, and well, where he learned it from, it was just kind of a done thing in the early 20th century.

I've been watching your vids for a bit now and am currently working on ain't misbehavin. Your sense of how to squeeze the most from the humble uke is AMAZING! Plus your voice; a bit of southern in it (which this Yankee likes) but I LOVE how you use it to convey the feelings in the song. My best (to me) example is in Ain't Misbehavin when you skip a beat going "just you I'm thinkin of" to "Ain't misbehavin" which is hard to do but conveys such a subtle sense of guilt because the singer is lying or just playing around - a significant part of the song. I know this is a bit of a weird post but I like your style and am trying to soak it up. From a moderately advanced uke player with very little performance experience.

You're a very talented teacher. I like your calmness. Could you please give the time signatures for the split stroke?

@Banjoleletinman 29 күн бұрын

That time signature is 4/4 for the whole piece but you can think of the split stroke as a clave rhythm with groupings of 3 and 2. In that case it would be 3+3+2

@JohannesHeld 29 күн бұрын

@@Banjoleletinman so something like that: 1+2+3+4+ DudDudDu And the fast hand movement between the d and D is only possible, because the d is not a full strum but a small hit on the g string?

@@JohannesHeld Yes exactly! The whole pattern is straight eighth notes but feels syncopated because of where the accents are placed due to the partial strums.

Love this and am working on it, thank you! Recently I learned the whistling piece from that other online video of him that he made; I spent days and hours figuring it out. As a beginner, am learning so much about right-hand technique from him...and you! I read he was always playing George Formby’s recordings at home. Love your playing and singing!!! I so admire your musicianship.

That's similar to my rendition with a few subtleties. Also "Five Foot Two" follows on naturally. I've just worked out "Here Comes the Sun" on Uke and it sounds amazing. It's a natural because the original is on a guitar with capo on 7th fret and the (soprano) Uke is 5 semitones higher so you can use the same "D shaped" patterns and it's a little bit lower to make the singing easier.
