Ukelele and Washboard

Old School Ukelele Kazoo and Washboard
For this post, we're going back.

How far we going back?

Real far back.

Out to 1929, comes this rare video of two cats, one on the uke, one on kazoo and washboard, getting down like Bad, Bad Leroy Brown.


That guy on the washboard? Money. Anyone that can pick up a kazoo and a washboard and play a good jam without coming off like a eccentric loser is a big mack daddy player. You know how it is - if you dropped a little improvised washboard on the street today, people'd be throwing $5 bills at your feet.



Give those kids a room out back, give 'em some beans and pork, and tell 'em to play here three times a week. Kids from the city will love it!

I love that old school footage, shame about the sound quality though.
