A lot of people think Tim is a joke, but he knew a lot about older American music and performers and had a big collection of 78s.

If you're into ukulele music, then you might be interested in George Formby or the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. George Harrison & Paul McCartney were big fans of George Formby and Harrison had a big collection of ukuleles and he would often give one away to friends & guests.
