Spice up an 8 Bar Blues on Ukulele
In this ukulele lesson we look at how to take the basic 8 bar blues form of St James Infirmary (based on the Louis Armstrong version) and breathe new life into it through chord inversions, substitutions, and harmonic movement.
Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced ukulele player you can take this concept as far as you like and join us at the end of the video for a full play-along with the band: no matter which set of chords you choose.

Nice one! I have one soprano with High G that I used to leave in the school I give classes. In home I have a tenor with Low G.
The best of both worlds!
Very clean and purpose behind every stroke
Lovely 😍
I would like tô watch more fingerstyle arrangements for soprano.
Crap....
This is terrific! Please tab it out for us?
Once I arrange the rest of the tune just having a little fin for now
Thank you for doing this despite it not being popular. You a real one.
Love this one! Thank you.
Hadn't seen anyone playing chord melody on a ukulele! Very cool. I would put the name of the song and author on the description, just for information sake. For anyone wondering, that's Ain't Misbehavin' by Fats Waller.
NIIICE! This is why I come to you for knowledge and technique.
Fun to play and sing.Thank you, Christopher
I'm almost ready to die. I have a Swiss pocketwatch (silver, not gold) and a Stetson (a Temple fedora). All I need are some straight laced shoes
Don’t forget your box back coat!
Thanks a lot for posting this. I have been playing more my guitar but this is a very good reason to pick up my older friend, the uke.
Such a great lesson about chord voicing, Christopher! Thank you for your paced teaching. It's fun to play along and learn new things while making music at the same time 😊
This is awesome! Thank you- will probably join the Magic Ukulele Club👍
You should. It's worth it - there is tons of extras that make it worth the subscription.

Where is the scarf? 😄
It's a hot one today!
Nice, thank you
Strum score: 12/12
What pedal?

So many wonderful and moving chord progressions. It is as great to watch as to listen!❤
Thanks so much for the lessons. Really appreciate it. Aloha from Hawaii!
That's so clean man, beautiful! I am a guitarist and i could never do that on a uke
Ha ha, I did it, thanks, great teaching
Thanks for pointing me to this video! Beautiful instrument. I don’t see a trussrodcover, is it not needed on this scale?
Nope, no truss rod. since the tension is so low at the scale the one piece maple neck is stable enough without.

Nice! Is that a custom electric ukulele? Would love to know more about it and what kind of pickup is used 😊
It is indeed! Made by Waiz instruments in Italy. The pickup is a custom wind from fanner guitar works. Here’s more info: czcams.com/video/nlu7jtO-2BU/video.htmlsi=JE8mIigOA--pnS-b
@@Banjoleletinman that’s sweet. so good
The lesson that I didn't know I needed. Thank you Christopher. ❤️
Magical homage to “12th Street Rag”, isn’t it? Thanks Tom - I’ve been playing it over and over again - unfortunately not ‘quite’ up to it on my ukulele - ah well, one of these years….. Robin Hood (London)
SO sorry, Christopher, don’t know why I called you “Tom” in earlier compliment on your wonderful “Wonky Ukulele” (probably the poor old “JB” thing, being 83 myself..), Robin Hood
Ive been called much worse than Tom in my life :)
In the other video on the split stroke, you showed it as DUD: (full) down, up on A, bounce down on G. Are those different split strokes?
Both the same split stroke but different ways of thinking of where they start. Both end up with the same hand motion in the end. Some folks learn it better feeling where the accents are (big down) and some where the downbeat is (small down). The split stroke is really anything that deals with the double down stroke to create syncopation
I just want to tell you, that due to your great explanation, I managed to get the Dud stroke going. The syncopation sounds amazing.
@@JohannesHeld So happy to hear that!
@@Banjoleletinman I'm also happy to hear that. ☺️🫣 Thank you!
Amazing! Bravo!
Superb arrangement and beautifully played
Yes, i do agree with Jenifer. Well done. Bonitos acordes.
Love your playing
Beautiful Lindos acordes ❤❤
🎼🎶💯👍🔥
That's cool 😮
Two approaches to Bb6 / Gm7 bookmarking for myself. I love this. czcams.com/video/IuyTnwKet1Y/video.htmlsi=kIeC4MIjxl-Q4DkX&t=350
Great explanation as usual! Thanks for your passionate teaching!
This’d work for NOLA grooves…
Heck yes!
Love your voice and play along videos.
Fun to play A big thank you
Love this song and that I can play along with you. Autoharp is my addiction…. 😊
What a fun instrument!
You are looking very happy Chris.
Life is grand :) I can't complain!
Thank you so much . This is fantastic.
Thanks for watching Lorraine!
