Swinging Jingle Bells – Brian Setzer style with tab – Merry Christmas!

Just a quick verse of Jingle Bells loosely based on Brian Setzer’s arrangement, and a very Merry Christmas…Happy Holidays! Also, for those interested, the guitar tablature for Jingle Bells that I hand-wrote for it can be found below.

Before you download the tab below:

My son designed a logo for a new brand of Bluetooth wireless earbuds that will be available shortly before Christmas 2017 – AffordaBuds.com – His design is an Alien named “ReeZen” and the tagline is “Listen to ReeZen – AffordaBuds are The Sound Choice in affordable Bluetooth wireless earbuds that connect easily and sound great!”

Please check it out at AffordaBuds.com

Link to the AffordaBud earbuds.

This is his first professional design and I am very proud of him and would appreciate your support of his efforts there…he’s one of company founders! Congratulations Harlon!

Thank you,
Rick McCargar

The lyrics to “So Alone”

Lost them all, when he passed away

I withdrew, and they slipped away

You Can’t Go Home……I’m so alone

We all lose……..when someone dies

You can see it….in our eyes

Left the city that had been my home

Felt the need to forget and roam

You Can’t Go Home……I’m so alone

We all lose……..when someone dies

You can see it….in our eyes

Then found love, settled down

made our home, in a little town

You Can’t Go Home……I’m so alone

We all lose……..when someone dies

You can see it….in our eyes

Our children came, gave their love freely

I stopped running, away from me

You Can’t Go Home……I’m so alone

We all lose……..when someone dies

You can see it….in our eyes

When my kids left home, and said goodbye

Time passed away, and so did I

They Can’t Go Home……They’re not alone

We all lose……..when someone dies

You can see it….in their eyes

Cascade Oz – acoustic instrumental turns into ambient land

Wrote a new song and decided to try it clean, and then through the Strymon Big Sky reverb on a custom chorale setting. Used my Guild Westerly F-150CE. Will probably do a bit more arranging / rearranging and work on the pedal settings, but thought it might be interesting for people to hear..in-progress. Hope you enjoy it! Please hit the like button (if you did), favorite it and share it….it all helps.

Would be very cool if you supported the art by purchasing this or any of my songs on bandcamp!
