The Gorillaz genre-splitting music all started with this album. Damon Albarn’s craft of writing music seems effortless. Let’s learn to play some songs on this album.
Today we are learning to play 5/4, Clint Eastwood and Rock The House. The video below will give you an idea of what the ukulele tabs will sound like.
This video is part of a project I’m working on. I’m learning to play my favourite albums on a ukulele. If you enjoyed it why not check out some other classic albums that I arranged. Like Demon Days, The Now Now or Plastic Beach.

5/4
The timing for this is unconventional. Surprisingly, its in 5/4. All that means is that usually, we would count in sets of 4. This time we are counting up to 5 instead.

Rock The House
This is a simple but lovely lick to play on the uke. Its a little bit nippy but it shouldn’t trouble you if you are a beginner.
