16 Jan 09 I dont know where the sun beams end…
When i first started to learn the uke (back in the days before Uke Hunt) I was amazed to find the chords to ‘Yoshimi battles the pink robots’ on the Ukulele boogaloo site. Since then, it seems to have become a bit of a ‘standard’ in the world of ukuleles. (Just try searching youtube if you dont believe me!)
But the first track on that album, and my favourite, is ‘Fight Test’ and im surprised that no one else has been strange enough to attempt it. Until now…

Hi, Andy
