Thought Id have a go at this one cos I've always loved the dub version King Tubby Meets The Rockers Uptown. 80's electro-dub pioneers Colourbox also did a great version. Original song by Jacob Miller (produced by Augustus Pablo) I'm afraid there's not much uke in it for ukulele fans.
Skiffle version of the 1969 Steppenwolf classic, BORN TO BE WILD by Fin, Gus and Keith aka Wray Gunn and The Rockets. This is the first time we've played together in quite a few years. If youre in Glasgow on the 14th - come to The Scotia Bar, Stckwell Street, Glasgow
Here 'Tis - another lesser known Bo Diddley belter. Best known version was probably by the High Numbers in 1964

This was a new one in 1927. Since then covered by many, including Frank Sinatra, Big joe Turner, Gene Vincent and Les Beatles.
