The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain – The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

“The Ukes perform Ennio Morricone’s classic, from the DVD ‘Anarchy in the Ukulele’, available to buy fromhttp://www.ukuleleorchestra.com
Another upload of exactly this clip received over 2 million views, but was mistakenly deleted in early 2010.”

Roger Bryan dropped me a note and said the following:
“Are you familiar with the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain? I especially like their rendition of “The Good, The Bad And The Ugly” amongst others.”

Thanks for writing to me Roger, and no, haven’t heard this particular ‘uke” version, but I sure do remember this song when I was growing up. You know, not easy to make it to pop radio playing an instrumental let alone become a big hit. That’s what was so cool about the 60’s and a lot of the 70’s… An instrumental could become a hit back then. I can’t think of any instrumentals becoming a pop hit recently, can you?
