We are getting further behind in Holiday prep every day, so not much new on my guitar front this week. Although, we did get a new Bee Gees lesson from Nesh – How Deep Is Your Love.

I did take the opportunity in today’s video to play a few of my favorite Christmas tunes. I opened with Jingle Bell Rock, which led to a little theory discussing seventh, diminished and augmented chords, all of which pop up in the song. Somewhere along the way I wandered into O Holy Night, then wrapped things up with I Wonder As I Wander and Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.

I also talked a bit more about my history with Christmas songs, going back to the 1980s and a 12-day gig at Macy’s department store, which led to my first album – A Christmas Collection, and a Holiday video for our local TV station in 1984. Check out young Neil below!

I hope you enjoy them and have a great Holiday Season!
