Time to bone up on those Christmas toons!

Every year I have to dig down and try to remember my Christmas tunes (they all aren't 1-4-5 tunes.) And, try to tuck a new one in the mix. The last couple years I have struggled with a fairly easy beauty of an arrangement of Silent Night by our arranging master, Craig Dobbins, from his tab/CD book "Acoustic Christmas." But, struggle as I may - it dudn't keep me from playing it in the "circle." Kinda jazzy - and, the highlight of the whole tune (for me) is this neat Lenny sounding F#m, F#m7 to B9(b5)/D# riff in the "sleep in heavenly peace" part.....
