Episodes
-
PICK IT UP (Electric Ukulele Version)
Forget all this 'unplugged' stuff - this is me on my uke - 'plugged in' - heavier than King Kong's poo after him not having 'been' for a week! Yes - this is my parody of the KISS track 'Lick It Up' but done on less strings, plus there's only one of me, so I reckon I've done a good job despite...
-
GRADELY GRADELY PIES
How to ruin a perfectly good tune: 1. Take an excellent track by "Kiss" and swap some tasty guitar sounds with a ukulele. 2. Change the lyrics and witter on about pies instead. 3. Inflict it on the world so they may share the suffering. Have a listen - if you're expecting it to be terrible - you...
-
CAN I PLAY WITH MADNESS (ukulele version)
My favourite track of all time by IRON MAIDEN... so you'll not expect me to butcher it? Hmm... don't get yer hopes up!
-
GOLDEN BROWN (ukulele version)
My ahem 'version' of a classic song by The Stranglers... you may want to strangle me when you hear it!
-
YEAR ZERO (ukulele version)
Take a brilliant tune by GHOST... then have some idiot with a ukulele ruin it - and here's the result!
-
RASPUTIN (ukulele version)
Take a brilliant tune by the legendary BONEY M... then have some idiot with a ukulele ruin it - and here's the result!
-
BARRYNOID (ukulele spoof)
Don't mistake this for the classic PARANOID by BLACK SABBATH... no, this is about me (Barry) being annoyed because my missus went to the chippy and didn't get me anything! Bugger!
-
DEVIL WOMAN - on ukulele
Cliff Richard's classic about a lass who's 'a bit of a wrong 'un'... Remember lads, stay away from loose drink and strong women!
-
ANOTHER CHIPPY TEA BRAWL
A tale of oppression and 'being towd what fer t' do'... similar to ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL by PINK FLOYD - but involving a chippy tea! Serious stuff!!!
-
MINTBALL WIZARD
Two great tunes are PINBALL WIZARD by The Who, and UNCLE JOE'S MINTBALLS by Mike Harding (the latter being about a rather famous Wigan hardboiled sweet)... but what if some idiot were to combine the two... would it be amazing, or some horrible abomination, like what yon mon turned into in THE…

OH OH UNCLE JOE
Two great tunes are RASPUTIN by Boney M, and UNCLE JOE'S MINTBALLS by Mike Harding (the latter being about a rather famous Wigan hardboiled sweet)... but what if some idiot were to combine the two... would it be amazing, or some horrible abomination, like what yon mon turned into in THE FLY? I...

WHEN AH'M CLEANIN' MINTBALLS
Two great tunes are WHEN I'M CLEANING WINDOWS by George Formby, and UNCLE JOE'S MINTBALLS by Mike Harding (the latter being about a rather famous Wigan hardboiled sweet)... but what if some idiot were to combine the two... would it be amazing, or some horrible abomination, like what yon mon…

CHIPPY REHAB (ukulele spoof)
A tale about trying to stop a Wigan Lad (i.e. me) from goowin' ter t' chippy... oh aye, like that'd EVER happen(!)
-
WIGAN PEOPLE (ukulele spoof)
Sod 'The Common People' - sing along wi' the WIGAN PEOPLE instead! Champion!
-
SMASH IT UP parts 1 & 2 ukulele version
One of my all time favourite tunes by THE DAMNED - part one being an instrumental and part 2 not being one. Champion tune and I hope I do it justice! :)
-
SHE SELLS SANCTUARY (AND PIES & PASTIES)
A slightly 'altered' version of a classic rock song by cult band... THE CULT!
-
WIGAN IS REALLY FANTASTIC
Yep... it's me basically doing a 'Wiganised' version of one of Frank Sidebottom's 'REALLY FANTASTIC' songs... all respect to the late, great Mr. Chris Sievey who was 'the man behind the mask' re: Frank, and a major influence on my music and (ahem) 'comedy' - you know he is... he REALLY is! Thank...
-
PINBALL WIZARD (ukulele version)
Ding-ding-ding a-ding-a-ding... DAH-DAAAW! ? Listen to this and the above may just make some sense as I ruin a classic song by THE WHO.
-
THE ACE OF SPADES (ukulele version)
"You know I'm born to lose" say the lyrics from this MOTORHEAD classic... and when you hear my version, that's this first word you'll be thinking of - loser! :D
-
HERE COME THE PIES (ukulele parody)
One of my favourite songs by THE BEATLES - "Here Comes The Sun" as you've never heard it before - i.e. 'spoofed' and done badly with the assistance of a ukulele!
-
WHEN I'M SIXTY-FOUR (ukulele version)
Yet another classic from THE BEATLES that's been mauled about, re-fettled and buggered up thanks to me and my trusty ukulele!
-
MAXWELL'S SILVER HAMMER - on ukulele?
Just me and my ukulele destroying yet another classic song - this time, that ruddy DARK yet jolly little tale of murder by THE BEATLES
