Known as the "Jimi Hendrix of the ukulele," Hawaiian native Jake Shimabukuro expands the instrument's traditional repertoire to include rock stylings that sound more like Eddie Van Halen than Don Ho. Shimabukuro continues to push the boundaries of the ukulele in his concert film MILLION MILES AWAY, which finds the virtuoso travelling from Hawaii to Tokyo to perform classical compositions with the Japanese Devil's Strings Quartet before returning home for a candlelit live performance of traditional Hawaiian ukulele music. Filmed on the 2004 RAINBOW tour, MILLION MILES AWAY also presents a selection of rehearsal takes, sound checks, and backstage footage for an intimate home-video-like atmosphere with artful black-and-white interludes.

Jake Shimabukuro - Million Miles Away DVD
$13.05 Shimabukuro is the undisputed master of the new school of ukulele playing today, one of the few people capable of pleasing both the traditionalists and the avant-garde within his genre. Thanks to this, and his stunning virtuosity on the instrument, there's been a fair amount of press about his versatility and abilities in general. This album, by itself, shows what the press is about. Despite the sonic limitations of the ukulele's small body and string count, he casually starts out with smooth jazz and some Paganini (one of his specialties), most of which is done with minimal accompaniment. After making Celine Dion's piece de resistance enjoyable for people outside ...

| | Rosanne Cash List CD (2009)
Jake Shimabukuro - Million Miles Away video
$14.45 After the dark and chilling themes of 2006's BLACK CADILLAC, which saw Rosanne Cash dealing with the deaths of her mother, Vivian Liberto, her father, Johnny Cash, and her stepmother, June Carter Cash -- all of whom passed within a two-year span -- one might assume that her next project would move into an even deeper level of bleakness, but with THE LIST, it's immediately clear that she has instead found a more measured place to stand. It's a lovely and redemptive outing that looks back to go forward. When Cash turned 18, her father, alarmed that his daughter only knew the songs that were getting played on the radio, gave her a list of what he considered 100 essential American songs; Cash kept that list, and now she's drawn on it for this wonderfully nuanced outing that brims with a kind of redemptive timelessness. THE LIST is a renewal and a testament to life, and it belongs to her father as much as it belongs to her, a beautiful restatement of her father's passions, only now, they've become his daughter's treasures, as well. It's an affirming story, but that's all it would be if Cash didn't sing her heart out here. The opener, a version of Jimmie Rodgers' "Miss the Mississippi and You," is full of comfortable grace and sentiment, and Cash keeps that fine emotional tone throughout this set. Songs like the folk classic "500 Miles" feel at once both lovingly rendered and reborn for a new century in Cash's hands. There's also her fine rendering of Bob Dylan's "Girl from the North Country," a nice turn at Harlan ...
