I’m very taken with this song and Gogol Bordello in general. The riff was originally an Italian folk tune called Tromba degli Zingari.
I play this riff with the A string ringing throughout to give it a bit more weight on the uke. I use my thumb to play the melody notes and my ring finger to play the continuous A note.
Genius.
Why don’t people talk about my super theory of super everything???
I liked the song here so I decided to look this band up and…WOW!
These guys are amazing!
Not only does this site provide wonderful exercises and songs for the uke , but it’s showing me new and exciting bands!
Rock on!
Nelson: Glad to be able to turn you onto them. They’re a damn fine band.
Jimmy: And where’s the marinated herring?
Olly: Enjoy the gig.
enjoy the gig??? it was the best night of my life! we went to the private afterparty too. :o) was amazing… made me even more determined to learn this properly. cheers again for the tab!
Oh, hark at you at the afterparty :P Nice one, Olly.
why don’t people talk about whilst being so original, none of there music is original!
Cheers. One of the best bands on the planet, I was at that Manchester gig too. Ridiculously good live.
