I got a ukulele on april 1st and decided that april would be record 1 uke song per day month and thats what I did. There are 10 songs missing because there were audio problems in them that I couldn't fix but this is basically about me learning the ukulele by trial and error after studying tunings, chords and playing styles for a while before getting one.
So, this isn't like a normal album album, because some of the songs would've either been weeded out or, if I felt they were necessary, attempted to be recorded until I thought it was album worthy but this was more of a one take mostly improv type thing. I pretty much just played around and sung until a song seemed to exist and then hit record and tried to make it work.
And thats pretty much all I experimented with on this, me and a uke, no effects... though there is the beginning of "Pop This Big Bubble" and all I can say is that a man (at least this one) can only go so long without adding a little something extra, until he can't help himself, even if it goes against the whole concept of what was being done.
All in all I think this is a pretty decent album, I only have qualms with about three songs, that I could've made better if I allowed myself to do more than one take and even those aren't horrible and have their own redeeming qualities. Though I'm sure if anyone disagrees they'll be more than happy to share their disgust in regards to how every single song is the worst song they've ever heard.
