Since the Christmas season is officially on......

This has been posted in the past, but I'm guessing there's a few here that haven't heard this older version of the song. Done with BB & RB providing the rendered wave tracks.

I'm playing the piano and the guitars. Everything else is BB.

GREENSLEEVES

Hope you enjoy this blast from the past.... it's a bit on the "heavy side" but hey..... I like it like that.

I recommend listening with good headphones or speakers cranked..... with a sub......

This would make a great soundtrack for that TV show "Reign" when everyone is dressed up in quasi-Eizabethan style just before they show up at the grand ball and make 112 anachronistic mistakes in the dialogue and confuse several continents and a dozen rulers, right before the background music breaks out into a rousing rendition of AC/DC's Highway to Christmas Hell and everyone starts getting freaky with whips and chains under the mistletoe.

In fact, it would be perfect!!!!!!



Mix it down man.

I used to love to whistle this a kid.
Thanks for listing bought back a lot of memories.
Great production. Rob

Hi, "Guitarhacker"!

Seems it's been a while. I hope everything's on the "up-and-up" with you.

Your version of "Greensleeves" has a bit of the style of the music in the film soundtracks composed by the Italian composer, Ennio Morricone, for the "spaghetti westerns" from the late 60's starring Clint Eastwood.

I could almost hear that eerie melody, "Ah-ooo-ah-ooo-ahhh (wah, wah, wah-h-h!) as I listened to it. Then, again, I could also hear Roy Orbison's distinctive style and voice delivering the lyrics like the musical outlaw he was.

Pretty cool and very unique version of an ages-old Christmas standard, "GuitarHacker"!

Impressed,

LOREN

David Synder:

Wow, that was a hilarious scenario for the use of "Guitarhacker's" version of "Greensleeves" that you laid out !!!

Tickled,

LOREN

You did a fantastic job on this, Guitarhacker It sounds so lush and full - you really nailed the mixing job on this one. The balance is absolutely stunning. Of course, great playing as well!

Thanks so much for sharing

And a great big thank you for listening and commenting. I'll be pulling a few more out of the dusty vaults of history for the christmas season.....

I'm working on some new stuff and should have some of that ready in a bit.

Love it Herb!!! Sweet version. You got the surfer vibe going with the guitar early on, and kind of a Queen vibe toward the end. Sweet tone and playing!! Thanks for posting! Take care. Greg

Hello Guitarhacker
It has a bit Clint Eastwood movie theme to it.... I see horse's and panoramic views.
It's very well done. I enjoyed this and "Whiskey For Breakfast" too...
