Here are three solo instrumental uke tunes I recorded this past Saturday. I used my son's Lanikai CK-T tenor ukulele on the cuts, a single Audio Technica Pro-37 condenser mic, Pro Tools software.
The Peanut Vendor - Cuban tune, one of my all time faves.
Kanaka Wai Wai - Hawaiian gospel hymn.
Runaway - Del Shannon's big hit.
Three solo uke tunes from Gerald Ross
Scroll down to Uke section.
Enjoy!

Gerald, very nice picking. Had to listen very closely for the melody but it was there. What is Pro Tunes software?

Gerald,
Very nice renditions and playing as usual.
That ukelele really has a nice bell ring tone to it.
I'll bet you were pickin and a grinin.
See you in Joliet.
Aloha,
Don

Nice job, Gerald, but no lap steel that I can hear. I'm going to move this to Music.

Never knew a uke could sound so good. I like it! Runaway is my choice, and yes now I can't get the tune out of my head. Great playing.
