There was WAY TOO MUCH REVERB on the vocals....might re-record it so it's better....but this one is as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not embarrassed by my playing.... singing is mediocre (at best), but playing in front of other musicians never phased me. We all have out strengths and weaknesses.... different preferences..... different styles..... it's all good. I find myself drawn to music from early 20th century...and this song is structured much like many songs from back then. I wish more people would post videos in here.... I learn and enjoy.

DanvillRob Posted December 6, 2021 Author Share Posted December 6, 2021 How can I resist posting my own funny "Blue Christmas" here after those two? One in the key of G# the other in the key of A#....mine is more simple...in the key of E (like all good guitar songs!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitefang Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Until finally(and probably the last one to) moving up from "dial-up" I found posting YT clips easier than I thought it'd be. Like this clip....of a favorite Christmas song from my favorite ever Christmas album---- This LP came out in '57 and I grew up hearing it every Christmas season. Can't celebrate the season without it. Whitefang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had photo bucket also and could post here. I had a problem way back on Facebook and asked my son to fix it. Yep, he just deleted Facebook so I couldn't see it any more. Lol. So I don't want him fixing Imgur for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid sounds pretty smart to ME! Anyway, I suppose too, we could get around to mentioning Christmas songs we don't like. Fro me, it's a fair sized list. U there are Paul McCartney's and John Lennon's( {"Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time" and "So This Is Christmas, respectively) Paul's dweeb fest tune contains probably the worst synth work ever recorded, and Lennon's reminds me of the Peter, Paul And Mary tune, "Stewball". Just give a listen! And---- Not to mention that silly crap about "Beautiful Shoes". Whitefang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Pepper Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) My favorite is I Believe In Father Xmas by ELP and The Kinks - Father Xmas. The Waitresses - Xmas Wrapping was good too. Blue Xmas by Elvis is good too. But those are not the same 10 standards everyone records, those bore me as I heard them the last 55 years of my life and now Xmas music starts to be played in July.

Whitefang Actually, I asked John to remove me from Facebook long ago as I was tired of hearing all the political arguments from Railroad workers. Instead of taking me off it, he just deleted the app so I couldn't get back on. "Problem solved he said." No it wasn't solved. I still get stuff from it on my phone and they are always asking me to wish this and that person a happy birthday. When I used to be signed in, neither Deb nor John knew how to sign me off permanently. Now, I can't get back in to figure out how? I love that "So this is Christmas" by John Lennon.
