For fun, I’ll be counting down the days to Christmas with some of my holiday favorites by some of my favorite pickers. First up is this classic by BSO. Many know his arrangement with vocals, but this is the instrumental version which appeared on the 2005 release Merry Axemas (an amazing album if you haven’t checked it out–I’ll be featuring more from it here over the next few weeks). *note: it was originally released in 1997 and re-released in 2005* This has it all. Rockabilly swing, big stabbin horns, thumpin bass, and of course the guitar work is nothing short of masterful.
I’ve taken to ushering in my holiday season with this one. Enjoy!
