Hi Bill &mdash 12/01/05 - 11:39:23 AM
I haven't comment on a tack for a hile as just typing 'That's totally
fantastic' every time doesn't add very much. But, heck, this tune is just
that.

I love the huge sound. Perhaps you'd like to tell us more about the
preamp you chose in the forums and for what reasons - for of us using
whatever happens to be built in to their audio interface or mixer.

Hi Bill &mdash 12/01/05 - 01:16:34 PM
Ya, I should post to the forum about it when the time is right. Now I am just
getting used to it's power. I feel the sound is clearer, and am getting more
clarity in the bass notes But I am also trying to work the treble mic further away
from the bridge so the 6th and 5th strings are cleaner and include more treble
in the sound of those strings.

Not Fair &mdash 12/01/05 - 01:12:14 PM
It seems as if you have been pumping out these christmas songs, like you
can go sit down whenever you feel, record yourself, and bam, you have an
excellent song :) You have some great talent. I'm liking this christmas
collection.

You've done it again! &mdash 12/01/05 - 06:23:45 PM
Hi Bill,

Why is it that when an accomplished musician like yourself makes it
sound so easy to do, it inspires us to play as well, but when we pick up
our axe it lies dead in our hands?

Always enjoy listening to you. 10's across the board for this one!

Rick

You are the Mac Daddy! &mdash 12/01/05 - 09:46:18 PM
Wow - Merry Christmas - keep them coming

If you lived in Minnesota I would hire you out to teach me better guitar. I love the ease and your folk style.

I hope you are using your gift and talent to inspire others as you have here on Macjams!

Blessings.

Thanks engler21, some of the ease part helps when I bought my Santa Cruz
acoustical guitar. It is a bit easier to play than the Takamine I use d for
fingerpicking. Now I just use it for slide work cause I had the nut and bridge
rasied.

Thanks so much

Another great performance &mdash 12/02/05 - 06:43:49 AM
Tiler, you just keep knockin' them outta the park! This is beautiful.
Gorgeous sound, and those golden fingers of yours, as always, coax an
uncompromising joy out of the strings. Put me right in the Christmas
mood.

Genre jumping &mdash 12/03/05 - 02:15:53 PM
I love how you slide from classical to folk and blues riffs all in the same
passage. Very nice Mr. T
Of course the playing and arraigment are superb. Great job!

Thank you for sharing.

Superb playing, great sound...what else can I say? Nice.

Can't keep up with you, Bill... &mdash 12/04/05 - 04:57:27 PM
...too many tunes to listen to...

This one has nods to Fahey in the ragtimey feel under the traditional
tune..

Tone and recording nice as always...

thank you so much xxx

Nice &mdash 12/05/05 - 04:09:32 PM
you make this sound so easy, but still everytime I pick up a guitar I think:
"Which one of these long metally bits plays A?"

So I'm gonna leave the guitarplaying to you guitar players.
Then everybody'll be happy.

Excellent work.

Hot &mdash 12/06/05 - 01:39:02 PM
Good idea to make this into an uptempo, almost ragtimey song. Makes
it stand out from any others and puts a lot of your original stuff in
there. Impeccable playing as usual!

WOW! &mdash 12/07/05 - 02:15:27 PM
LOVE THIS, SO not what I expected, but a great surprise on this cold
winter's day! Merry Christmas, thank you for the music!

Freakin' awesome! &mdash 12/07/05 - 02:23:46 PM
This is the style of finger-pickin' I really enjoy. Thanks for doing such a
wonderful job on this classic. The production value is wonderful as well.
I'm finally starting to find the stuff I was hoping to find on MacJams. Keep
it coming!

My iPod... &mdash 12/20/05 - 08:58:03 AM
... holds only a thousand songs, so maybe you better stop recording such tasty Christmas tunes that I am compelled to download.

Love that bluegrass-y sound!
