Ha! Willie Nelson, Leon Russell. I love those guys, but they are only allowed to sing in public because they are great songwriters. Since I don’t have that gift, I guess I’d best polish up my singing a bit more. Thanks for listening, though!

I agree that you got a kind of a Willie Nelson vocal thing going on! If Willie can style him some xmas carols, and he can, then you sure as hell can too.

Nice solo.

That was wondeful, LJ. Your voice on this one reminded me of Willie Nelson(!), and the mix was really perfect for the vibe.

Happy Xmas!

That was so beautiful, Larry. So pretty. That’s a keeper.

Merry Christmas!

I think I finally got a usable one, but was too tired to listen to it. This really makes me feel like an amateur. I hope my singing is good enough.

It’s tough to do this all alone, isn’t it? Every year I wish I was with a bunch of music lovers who could give me feedback. (Although, I don’t take direction very well! lol — I can still dream, can’t I?)

Your singing was *great!* Like I wrote in my little post — reminded me of Leon Russell.

I’d love to hear you do “A Song for You.” One of my very favorite songs ever.

Ah, Larry. Your recording is just beautiful — including your guitar and voice. I’ve always loved “I’ll be Home for Christmas” … and I loved last year’s “Jingle Bell Rock”, too.

I wish I could sing, but chickens fall over dead and cats start yowling when I try. Thanks for making me smile. Now I’m off to bake some peach/raspberry pies and wrap presents. Merry Christmas!
