Luther Wright and the Wrongs did a bluegrass version of the Pink Floyd classic "The Wall". Roger Waters who was the creative force behind The Wall endorsed Luther's version as the best cover he had ever heard.  Luther did not try to imitate, they took the songs put them in their own style while staying true to the integrity of the original.

So I went looking for ukulele covers of "Mother" and I did not find any that were fun enough so I have come up with my own way of doing it that keeps the song simple, fun, and lends itself to the uke.  Luther's version is attached as an MP3, I am afraid we will be asked to take it down as there are no YouTube versions of this song.  Sarah Harmer is singing the Mother parts.
