I've read that no one in the last century had done more to explore the musical possibilities of the ukulele than Ohta, a native of Hawaii. His performing, recording and teaching career spanned five decades and inspired more players than any other living ukulele virtuoso. Indeed, Ohta still has an incalculable impact on the stature of the instrument worldwide and in 2006, he was inducted into the Ukulele Hall Of Fame Museum. His biggest selling album was this, Song For Anna, which was recorded in 1972 or 1973.
