As you might have guess, there’s going to be a fair proportion of 80s cheese in the keyboard riffs for ukulele series. And it doesn’t come much more 80s than the theme tune to Beverley Hills Cop. The 80s must be the only time in pop music history that it was fashionable to be German.
Keep the notes in this one short and muted by resting the underside of you picking hand just in front of the bridge.







Cheesy, absolutely but it is a really fun tune. Hopefully enough time has passed that people have forgotten that accursed frog version…
OH YEAH…love it…what next…herbie hancock…thomas dolby…georgio moroder…bring it on!!!
P.s. any news on those awesome looking tee shirts yet…my wardrobe needs them…
Awesomeness.
I agree with Nick. Bring on the Giorgio Moroder for Ukulele e-book.
I ain’t gonna fall for no banana in the tailpipe…
good stuff Mr Shed!
Grease: I actually had forgotten about that. No thanks for reminding me ;)
Nick: News on that in about 15 minutes. Not all of it good news.
Paul: Agreed.
Iain: Yes, I’ll add the GM ebook to the list.
