Just wishing everyone on the Forum a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family. If you click on one of the links, you'll go to a web page. On there, you'll find a link for The Christmas Song which features my playing of a jazz arrangement. If one of the websites is down, try the other. If they are both down, come back a little later, or e-mail me, and I'll send you a .mp3 attachment of the song. Best to you all and to all a good night.

What a coincidence! Remember "Handful of Keys"? On hearing this and thinking of Jeff's three-pick technique, I thought of a handful of strings.

I believe that is Jeff's Zum with 11-strings on the C6th neck.
....and see......you don't need 3 finger picks.....ha....just a thumb and 2 finger picks......like Jeff.....and you can play this too.....  ....yeah Right.

I'm not sure if that was in Eb or D#,but one thing is certain; it B#!!! Great Christmas present, JEFF! Now,let's see...maybe I could tune my 10th string to Eb,instead of B,and start on the 11th frett...nawww,shucks!
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas,JEFF!!!!

Hi Guys,
Thanks for all the wonderful comments. I'm overwhelmed and deeply appreciative. Like Ricky said, I play a Zum D10/11 with an 11-string C6 neck. 2 finger picks and a thumb pick. As many of you know, I study jazz theory a lot, and it heavily permeated the arrangement. Also, some of it was just my own out-of-the-box stuff which works, even though I don't really know why. Anyway, again, thanks so much. |

Jeff: My first time hearing you play and I am surely impressed !! Years ago I sat with Julian at MSA and he was playing changes like this and I winced at one of the changes and he asked me "What ??"
I replied: Wasn't that wrong ??
He replied: There is no such thing as wrong !!
I've since learned to listen better and understand more and a lot of that has come from discussions I have had with you. For the music and the learning
I THANK YOU !!
Regards, Paul   |

Jeff-I am impressed, but not surprised after reading all your great posts. I knew then that you are a fine musician.
As Herb says, a little Julian Tharpe in there and maybe Curly too.
But Mostly I think it was original Jeff Lampert...Happy Holidays to You and all the guys on the Forum....al |

Jeff, I downloaded it yesterday and can't stop playing and listening to it. my player keeps snapping at me when I reach to turn it off. My other half is not even a steel fan per sa but she even commented that it was pretty. Even turned down the T V so she could hear and she was a room away at the time. DAMN, my old fingers just can't move that fast !!!
SHEEEEEE I gotta turn this off and go to bed. I'm like a junkie now, I GOTTA HAVE MORE PLEASE ???
------------------
JUST 'CAUSE I STEEL, DON'T MAKE ME A THIEF
