Sounds great &mdash 11/10/05 - 12:53:45 PM
The backing strings are a nice touch. I've always thought that 'sleeves melody was beautiful, and it's great the way you branch out from it. Your playing still amazes me.

Great arrangement! &mdash 11/10/05 - 01:22:35 PM
You can always tell when someone loves a song that they play - it can't
help but come out in the sound. I absolutely love the layers you built
into this piece.

Great arrangement! &mdash 11/10/05 - 10:51:28 PM
Thanks so much notso, how precious you are for coming by so much!

This was fun when Jam pack 4 started to materialize in the orchestration. Mixing
up with violins, oboe, cello and french horn I felt made it more interested than if
I stuck with just violins and cello.

Thanks

always great guitar &mdash 11/10/05 - 06:45:39 PM
Great guitar playing as usual and I particularly liked the way you worked
the melody. The orchestral backing was nice at times but seemed a bit
distracting at others. It's a lovely piece of music that brings some fond
memories to mind.

Amazing! &mdash 11/10/05 - 07:55:56 PM
Great interpretation of one of my favorite song to sing of all time. Bill-
this is really wonderful! Downloaded for my new mix of holiday music!

Awesome, Bill. &mdash 11/10/05 - 08:27:24 PM
Your rendition is one of the best I've heard.

I'm feeling the Christmas Spirit, now. And that's what it's all about, isn't it?

Thanks for posting.

Good Stuff &mdash 11/10/05 - 11:20:48 PM
You have a little Christmas collection started with the last couple songs
Bill :) I love this stuff as usual, and as many said, the strings really added
a lot to this piece.

Bill.... &mdash 11/11/05 - 06:35:59 AM
that guitar of yours is an extension of your soul. I feel it. The world would
be a better place if everyone could just stop for a moment and hear you
play. Another fantastic piece by the acoustic master here at MacJams.

Very beautiful green.
The tone is a special product.

Fantastic! &mdash 11/11/05 - 09:03:22 AM
This is one of my favorite Christmas songs. It's what it's all about.

Your guitar picking is great as usual. I think you have my favorite
acoustic tone on Macjams. It always sounds so crisp and natural.
This song almost made me tear up it was so beautiful.

Respect! &mdash 11/11/05 - 03:56:52 PM
Not sure what happened then - sent a comment and it disappeared
into cyberspace! In case it doesn't magically appear:

Bill, this is beautiful! You have reworked a standard and made it a real
antidote to all the dark stuff happening in the world at the moment.
Betsy sounds better and better with each new song. This was relaxed
and relaxing - clean and wholesome - open and joyous. We need
more of this in the world.
Respect (and seasons greetings to you and yours)!. Neil

Gorgeous &mdash 11/12/05 - 04:49:08 AM
This is so lovely, Bill. Your artistry, as always, gives vibrant life to each
song you play. Your arrangement is really nice on this one. The guitar
is center stage with a soft cushion of strings. Just a beautiful rendition
of this favorite Christmas song.

song....just a gorgeous rendition tiler! bravo!!

I liked the orchestration. &mdash 11/14/05 - 12:40:04 PM
Of course tiler's guitar can stand on its own any day, but I think the backing is sweet and not intrusive at all. A gorgeous arrangement.

Very nice indeed! &mdash 11/15/05 - 04:51:46 AM
I love your rendition of this classical Christmas hymn. I've added it to my
iTunes collection of Christian Instrumentals, that I listen to while relaxing.

I look forward to hearing more from you in the inspirational genre.
