#674 - Ralph Shaw The Ralph Shaw Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour. Ralph Shaw is an entertainer who performs on a banjo-ukulele. He is a witty recording artist and showman with a love and passion for performing. He's also a great songwriter who's tender and comical songs are deceptively sophisticated. In addition to his original songs, he interprets many of the classic songs from the Tin Pan Alley era of American music. His work, including solo albums and a book, has played a crucial role in creating the current ukulele boom. He joins us to talk about his musical world, his songwriting and more. Hailing from Yorkshire, England, it was a pleasure to interview him and also have him perform a song for the listeners. Hey one thing. Did you know that this show depends on you? It does.
