Best ukelele orchestra I've ever heard--and I doubt any others can over Lou Reed, Neil Diamond, David Bowie, and the Undertones with the panache these guys can.

One of them, anyway:). Plus, the definitive version of "You Don't Bring Me Flowers"--finds meaning in the song never conveyed by Neil, or Barbra, or even Neil and Barbra:).
