NEW! Check out Uncle Dave's Xmas Videos on youTube. Jingle Bells. Jingle Bells New Orleans style. Or, at least, a California kid's idea of New Orleans style. Direct Link The First Noel This song reminds me of a typewriter I used to have; it had no "L". Featuring Lenny P on sax and Yo Mama on cello. Direct Link The Twelve Days of Christmas For years, Uncle Dave has been unable to come up with an instrumental version of this song that wasn't incredibly boring. Until now. Direct Link Good King Wenceslas After a hard day of gathering winter fuel, Uncle Dave likes to pound out some barrelhouse blues on the old Steinway, accompanied by "Traps" the Christmas elf on drums and "Stretch" the bass-playing Christmas angel. Direct Link We Wish You a Merry Christmas / Joy to the World If Bach were alive today...he would be more than 300 years old. Direct Link Up on the Housetop Like you, I had always thought that the name of this song was "Up on the Rooftop". Apparently, we were wrong. Up-tempo bop. Direct Link Ave Maria If Schubert were alive today...this would probably kill him. Direct Link The Holly and the Ivy This song has become quite popular lately, but everyone does a huge, overblown arrangement for it. I've done a small, underblown setting for woodwinds and harp. Direct Link O Tannenbaum Berlin to Bavaria and back. Direct Link O Holy Night If Mozart were alive today...he'd be really upset about that "Amadeus" movie. Direct Link Little Town of Bethlehem You know, where they used to make all that steel. Mid-tempo Bop. Direct Link Silent Night / Away in a Manger An arrangement that just oozes niceness. Direct Link We Three Kings I found this music box lying in the street. Really. Direct Link Deck the Halls With Bo's of Diddley and your Christmas will not fade away, Buddy. Or, I Want Candy Cane. Direct Link Angels We Have Heard on High Performed by Techno Prisoners. Direct Link What Child Is This? Musicologists speculate that this English hymn, better known as "Greensleeves", was probably introduced to the residents of the Ivory Coast of Africa by Christian missionaries in the early part of the 19th century. I made that up. Direct Link Carol of the Bells / God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen Salsa with "Cool Ranch" flavor. Direct Link Jingle Bells Try using "upsot" the next time you play Scrabble®. Direct Link Auld Lang Syne Peace and love version. Direct Link |
