Instrumental Solo Christmas Guitar
John Sheehan has arranged 10 well known Christmas songs for finger-style guitar. I just about fell off my chair when I heard John's "Silent Night" as I wasn't expecting to hear a solid finger-style blues groove used for such a tune. But it works a treat.
↓ more ↓As do all the arrangements in fact, which deftly weave the traditional elements of the song with John's imaginative rhythmic and melodic excursions.
"Sheehan's medieval 'O Come, O Come Emmanuel' is majestic. Every song on Instrumental Solo Christmas Guitar is enjoyable and will put you in a peaceful and happy holiday mood!" Laura Lynch ,Kweevak.com
Customer Comments "I really enjoyed the Christmas CD", Catherine Grissanti
"The Christmas CD is excellent", Dr. Joe Grissanti ,Pulminary Specialist and owner of Warwick Valley Winery
"The new Christmas CD is great, I love the howling wind in the background of the beginning of Jingle Bells. I think this is the best use of that backgound effect since my Robin Trowers - Bridge of Sighs Album. All kidding aside I've been playing the cd constantly since I got it it's got all the the great qualities of your other cd's and more. I hope to catch up with you soon. Hey am I nuts or does the very beginning of We Three Kings sound like you could do a great version of Dave Brubeck's Take Five also?" Dean Dobbs,Highland Lakes NJ
