Let Us Now Praise Famous ...

Like millions of other Americans you’ve probably asked yourself from time to time, “Why hasn’t greater recognition been paid to the great ukulele players of the past?” If so, you’ll be happy to learn about the “Ukulele Hall of Fame” which is “dedicated to the preservation of ukulele history,” a topic that has long been neglected by traditional historians. The UHOF was founded in 1996; among the inductees are Ernest Kaai, Manuel Nunes, Roy Smeck, and May Singhi Breen. You’re probably thinking, “Haven’t these famous musicians already been honored in many other ways?” The surprising answer is, no, and that’s just one of the many reasons the Ukulele Hall of Fame is so important to this country. We need organizations such as this one so our young people can learn more about these real life heroes and role models and “just say no” to the scandal and shame surrounding much of popular music today. But let the Ukulele Hall of Fame tell its own story. Do yourself and your family a favor by visiting the site today at:
