If that’s not enough for you, there’s also Jonathan Lewis’s ebook Irish Tunes for Campanella Ukulele.
One day while bopping about NYC with our ukes strapped on to our persons, a fella outside of an Irish pub asked Hot Time Harv and me to play him a tune. Harv broke into “Black and Tans” (don’t play it for Brits). The fella instantly feel in love with us; invited us into his pub; and proceeded to feed us and fill us up with booze whilst we sang and played the night away.
