... for the unforgettable tune ... The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

I just had to share this rendition with fellow members of GR.

Here is this unique tune performed brilliantly by the UKULELE Orchestra of Great Britain.

Play lasts five minutes.

The link below as received by me.

I'm sure you will enjoy this tune which is very likely familiar to us all ... regardless one's love (or not!) for 'Westerns' ...!

I didn't know there was such a thing as a ukulele orchestra.
I shall be most interested in your thoughts on this gathering of very talented players.

PS. I'll be very surprised if you don't 'play it again'.

Will listen to it in a minute but there are some quite surprising pieces of music on YouTube.

Mick Jagger singing 'The Long Black Veil'.

'Golden Brown' by the Wurzels who are, after all, a band of talented musicians.

'The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba' by an Irish fiddle band.

Well done, Rollo. I haven't seen that ad before.

So pleased you enjoyed watching it, Prickles. As always, I do hope you are well.
It is truly my very pleasure to share with folks.
BTW, it's very nice weather for this time of year!

Oh, how did the GBBO proceed today?
Some (un)lucky person made their last cupcake, methinks!

Thanks for the update, Prickles, much obliged indeed.
Sounds as if GBBO will never be the same ... as I say 'things are never the same second time around'.
As always ... we shall see how it progresses (or not) without Mary B (eventually!)
.
I enjoyed the ladies and their song. A very pleasant change indeed.
Thanks for thinking of me and for sending the link. Sweet of you.
Take care xxx
