Saturday Night's Alright For (Uke) Cover Fighting!






There'sNoUkeLike
CoverUkeVille



First, the Original, in all it's baroque splendour....



And, now, the Uke Cover, in all its barooky, kazookiest splendourifourisiosity (stay with it through the first 90 seconds or so...it's worth it)...



It really is a crazy, mixed-up world we live in.

Just wondering if this might be the same Eddie Hinton who as associated with Muscle Shoals and did some work with Boz Scaggs, perhaps Aretha, Duane Allman and who knows who else.

Wrong comment box! I did go check this out and, yes, it's the same guy. I just didn't know he'd been dead the last 17 years. There was a picture of him with a Gretsch in the centrefold of the first Boz Scaggs record (it still has red crayon price of $1.75 from Rohan's Records).

Ya, it is the guy from Muscle Shoals....

If you're interested, watch this...Clearly the DBT's have done there best to build a legacy for the late, great Mr. Hinton.

Freddie's original live is the best!
And the Kazookeylele is fabulous!
