Get Flash to see this player.

Description

Not quite all the days are on there. This more or less a take off of the original 12 days of Chirstmas.

This tune was done in Dropped "D" tuning.
It helps with the sustain on this tune as well. Helps it linger a bit after strumming in those go and stop sections.

	I do enjoy it The guitar sounds so rich, I love it. The energy is really nice, and I like the 12 days melodies rising out. Possibly the best version of this song. Check out my latest song called Machine Man (w Beastie Boys)

	Betsy is in good health Yes, indeed, she sounds as good as ever. I like the energy on this one- your fingers must have been flying. I ignored the 10 rating police--you deserved it. Check out my latest song called Picture of Perfection (MJRF)

Betsy is in good health
This was a very challenging piece for me to record because when you have to
strum and do fingerpicking you have to be care full of the placements of the
mics so they are not too close. It is really one of hardest things that I've done in
recording.

Thanks

	really fine Doesn't matter if there are twelve days in there. What matters is your exquisite ability to do variations on a theme. Man, this is good stuff. I am in awe.

thetiler	thetiler said 1434 days ago (December 22nd, 2005)
	really fine ya, I figured if I added a whole twelve days, it would take twenty days to record it.:) Thanks Rich --- <a href="http://cdbaby.com/cd/furnerbill">Latest CD Check out my latest song called The Bluebird Cafe (with two other guest)

Hey, my Internet is working!
I can listen to stuff! I can download stuff!

Another nicely conceived, arranged and realized piece of music, Bill,
instantly downloaded to the MacJams Christmas playlist...

You have really contributed greatly to the merriness of my personal
Christmas this year... This will be playing at both home and office...

Thanks. It's good. OF COURSE it's good!
