Tom:
Another uke ed source for you:
I do an EZine called UKE-TIPS, which addresses learning problems for uke players. I stress the importance of certain progressions, and other short cuts to learning the uke.
I have some background for this, as I have retired from the college music teaching field, with specialties in theory, jazz, and arranging. I also do a lot of work with Bill Tapia, the 100 year old jazz uke player.
If you interested, send me an email with a request, and I’ll put you on my email list.
