Hi all,
I have "Hummin' To Myself", and it sure is a winner.  Lightnin' sings and plays these songs so well, it's really a treat.
All best,

Hey guys. I have a brand new Ukulele CD compilation that I had professionally manufactured, It is entitled "Foolin' Around; studio outtakes, home recordings and live uke 1987-2017". It is from various sources, years and venues and was compiled completely by me, so I'm pretty happy with the musical performances although the sound quality is somewhat variable but quite satisfactory. For you Weenies who are used to blues performances from reissued 78 records I think there will be no problem though it ain't no modern studio stuff.  Lot's of fun 1920s tunes presented in a very bare bones manner like I'm playing in your own living room! Now available. $12 pp in the US. Lightnin' Wells 2477 Old Market Rd. Fountain, N.C. 27829
