Jumpin' Jim's '60s Uke-In is a collection of 25 fab songs from the 1960s arranged for the very first time for ukulele. It includes lots of big Beatles hits (All My Loving * Eight Days a Week * Here Comes the Sun * Michelle * Penny Lane * Something * When I'm Sixty-Four * Yellow Submarine * and more) as well as other classic '60s tunes, such as: Daydream Believer * Georgy Girl * Happy Together * Moon River * Those Were the Days * and more. Features an appreciation by George Harrison, a foreword by Jumpin' Jim, a chord chart, and a groovy, psychedelic cover.

Summary: Jumpin' into the Beatles tunes
Comment: Novice -- the only way to describe me. I really have enjoyed this book, the song All My Loving is my favorite so far and my family know what I'm strumming. Great starter book.
Customer Rating:
Summary: easy melodies
Comment: I'm old enough to remember all the melodies; so, I just have to learn to read the music. All of Jumpin' Jim's ukulele songbooks are comfortable to read.

Summary: One of the best books for easy Uke! Beatles!
Comment: I recently started playing the Uke, and found this book early in my Ukulele adventure. It is chock-full of Beatles tunes, and even has a friendly intro by George Harrison, who helped Jumpin' Jim with some of the arrangements. (George thinks everyone should own a Uke, because they are so fun and easy to take everywhere you go!).
Most of the arrangements are pretty easy, and set in chords that are easy to sing along with. I have several other Jumpin' Jim books, and they are all great, but this is my favorite!

Summary: Groovy Man!
Comment: There is no way you can play a uke' and not have this book!! The songs in this book compelled my 17 year old daughter to snatch my uke' and learn
to play these fun songs. Her favorite: "Here Comes The Sun". My friends love to sing along whenever I pull this book out. Really!

Summary: Get ready for big fun!
Comment: The songs in this little book will keep you strummin' and singin' for ... well, maybe forever! I was introduced to Jim's books through his Ukulele Gems and Ukulele Favorites titles, both of which have lots of wonderful jazz standards arranged for this delightful instrument. '60s Uke-In moves things up a few decades with a very cool collection of memorable tunes that will delight both the player and the listener. As another reviewer said, maybe not for the absolute beginner, but if you know even a handful of basic chords and are willing to put in a bit of practice time (makes perfect, so that say) you'll quickly be knocking these songs out and amazing friends and family. A very good song book to have along on camping trips, around the fir, etc.
