Someone posted that link a while back, but it's still worth watching again and again - thanks for the reminder John. Truly amazing playing!

Very nice! Lesson to be learned about the instrument vs the ability.

He made that little piece of wood and wire sing.
I'm just happy to be here.

A young man with nimble fingers, great technical ability, good arrangement skills, obvious love for the instrument and just plain old sheer talent... a pleasure listen to and watch. Thanks!

I didn't realize it had been linked before, but he was so talented and played with such feeling I had to share it. I don't have a clue who he is - I did see there were many copies put up by others so it is hard to findo out who he is. Glad it was appreciated...

Ok, I DID find this: His name is Jake Shimabukuro and his website:

I have a ukelele but there is a major difference in our abilities!!

He manages to put a lot of feeling in the song. A great interpretation.
