Christmas in August!

Post by Erv Niehaus »

I have quite a few Christmas carols tabbed out in E9th, 9 to be exact. I plan on tabbing out another one before long. How many of you would be interested in buying 10 Christmas carols complete with lyrics, notation and tab @ 10 for $10.00? Postage included. I'll list the songs a little later.
P.S. These won't be Santa Claus songs, they'll be taken from a Baptist hymnal.

Roy,
Thanks for your support. I'll add your name to the list. I want to mention that any money received from the sale of the Christmas tabs will be used to support the free gospel tab program.

The Christmas songs I've already got tabbed out are as follows:
1. Silent Night
2. Away in a Manger
3. Joy to the World
4. O Come, All Ye Faithful
5. O LIttle Town of Bethlehem
6. It Came upon the Midnight Clear
7. I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
8. Hark! the Herald Angel Sing
9. What Child is This, Who, Laid to Rest
10. ? (yet to be determined)

I should mention that number 9 is the same melody as "Greensleeves", a very beautiful old 16th century traditional English song that can be played all year long.

Thanks guys,
I'll put your names on the list. I sure appreciate it! I've started to tab out "Angels, from the Realms of Glory" for the 10th selection. I trust it will work out ok.

Yes, Tom, I have your address and will add your name to the list.

I am offering these Christmas songs at this time so you can get all practiced up in time for Christmas. It would be an excellent opportunity to "give praises to the Lord on an instrument of 10 strings". It seems that there is always a need for special music around Christmas time. And what is more special that a pedal steel rejoicing in the birth of our Savior!!!

Justin,
Thank you for your order.

I just finished up "Angels, from the Realms of Glory" last night and I think you'll like the tab. The Christmas tabs will be ready to go out soon!

I should mention that I tab out the songs in the original key that they are written in in the hymnals so you can play along with the pianist, organist, etc. in your church.

Please be advised everyone, that all who have ordered the 10 Christmas tabs, as of this date, will be getting them soon as I mailed them out today!
There were 15 sets sent out all over the civilized world and France too! (hello, CrowBear!) Image Image
Erv
P.S. There's a small post-it-note in the package as to where to send the "penga". Image

CrowBear,
Got your e-mail and I agree, we don't have to wait till Christmas to "give praises to the Lord on an instrument of 10 strings".
I'm sure you all know that "Silent Night" was fist played on guitar because the church organ was broke down.
