Hello All, Just thought I'd check in. We've been on the road a week or so. We are laying over for a day or two in Las Cruces NM. I brought enough of my equipment to form a rudimentary studio setup, so I threw this one together tonight. The song has been around a while. I released it on an album I did back in 2000, but I thought I would see if I could recreate it with BIAB for the holiday. I had to do the backup vocals myself, the original had a quartet, but they wouldn't fit in my motorhome. I am lucky to have some semblance of a wifi signal tonight. Rv parks are not known for their fabulous wifi signals. I check in when I can, but until we get in a stable location, it will be sketchy at best. I hope you like it and I wish each and every one a very Merry Christmas.

Every Day Would Be Christmas Day

Hi Guitar1 - thank you for this. I really enjoyed this.
Over in the UK we don't often go for this style of music but I know a Lady of my musical acquaintance who will simply LOVE this Christmas song with its Christian message.
Thanks for posting.
Ian

Very nice tune. Reminds me a lot of Waylon Jennings' "My Heroes Have Always Been Outlaws." I just love that old outlaw sound.

Wow - what a pretty and heartfelt song you wrote here smile And it's impressive you recorded this on the road. Honestly, I don't think there's anything I'd change here - it's a great write, and the arrangement is spot on as well.

Great job and thanks for sharing this with us!


Cheers,
Deryk

Gary, this song has a great raw quality to it! Kind of stripped down without a lot of heavy production-which is perfect for this one! I always like your vocals! Thanks, Torrey
