Killing the Blues...

I have written about Richard G's Ukulele Songbook over on Humble Uker and his arrangements show fingerings for the standard GCEA ukulele tuning. He posts this song both in A and C and since they are 3-chord songs are easily transferred over to the Bari. Richard has this song linked to this Alison Krauss / Robert Plant version.

I first heard this on a Chris Smither album called "Live as I'll Ever Be" and is one of my favorite albums. What a voice for the blues! This song needs to be played on a Bari.
