An overlooked cover tune LXII

Disclaimer: I know a Classical work is known as a piece, not a tune, but "An overlooked cover tune" is the name of this recurring feature.

When someone mentions Gershwin's "Rhapsody In Blue," you probably don't imagine it as a ukulele solo.  Pete Kennedy interpreted it that way, however, and his edited version is faithful to the piece's central melody while sounding surprisingly adaptable to the uke.
