Attribution of Songs

When I first put the songbook together it was for me – I got tired of all the paper I was carrying around. It then became a bit of a hobby and I expanded it to cover the songs that we were doing in my local ukulele clubs. It was never intended for publishing around (it was just a Word document that I converted to PDF).

Like a lot of beginning uke players I was not real good at putting attributions on the songs to say where they came from if I hadn’t worked them out for myself (I usually use Chordify or Riffstation as a base then try to add in the bells and whistles for myself or with help from proper musicians).

But then people started to share around the book and so I ended up creating this website to manage it a bit better.

These days I try to make sure that I put a proper attribution in and contact the club or person for permission but a lot of my old stuff that may be a full copy of a song from another site or where my song is based on another version but with some mods doesn’t have this attribution.

For this I apologise and would be delighted if you thought you should have recognition that you contact me and I will add in a link to your club.

I am also adding back into the site the list of thanks for the clubs that have in some way added to the book.
