Hey Guys! Here's an early holiday present for you!

So Listen, Download and enjoy!! Merry "Axemas!!"
Arranged, Played and Produced by ronnielong aka "Jimmy the Saint"
Inspired by Trans-Siberian Orchestra and Gary Hoey
Ps. I hope you like your face melted! :)

Good to hear this updated shredder-tune done justice... I like this one even better than your previous one, although I notice you got a little confused near the end there and started playing some other shlocky xmas tune (smirk). Nice bass and guitar work there, and I like how you slice-n-diced the arrangement, kept my attention. Dragons love sticking their nose into the fire... here's wishing you a hot holiday! Thanks for the rocker!
ttfn,

Your comments are much appreciated since you are a known collector of this ancient carol.. thank you again and again for always lending a kind ear (dragons have ears right?) to my shredding of a holiday classic. Take care my friend… I’m off to check out your versions now!

Ronnieeeeee: wow - i've never enjoyed a face melting as much as this one. Thanks - i needed a new face anyway! Incredible guitar work - i think you should do a whole CD of Xmas faves in this genre.....
ronnielong
HAhahaha... Sorry about the melted face M... I don't think you need a new one... but I'm glad you liked it! If it’s any consolation, I melted my own face off too… a few times… hahahaha.. you think a whole album of this crap would sell?? :)

I have always been fond of your 2005 version... but thought that it could have been fleshed out a bit more. I am glad you re-visited this and made it longer, thicker and meatier!!! OK, I will stop with the adjectives now.
ronnielong
NutZ!!! What up Brotha!! Long time no see... Glad you like this version my friend.. also glad its viewed as an improvement too... hahaha... those adjectives were getting a little dangerous though... hahahaha... Cheers my friend!

this is what it is all about! I heard Twisted Sister do Oh Come All Ye Faithful... on Letterman, one night. You did this much better. They just screamed. Keep on. Yes. A whole album would sell. Thanks.
