Hi all,
I thought I'd post a link to my version of "Silent Night" which I recorded for another forum's music site. There's two ukes on there (a soprano and a tenor), and a resonator guitar. The steel is my 1936-ish 7-string National Electric Hawaiian (pre-New Yorker). I'm in an E6 tuning, E B C# E G# B E, low to high, and the song's in C.
Hope you all enjoy!
John

That was neat. I hope next time you will make your Ukes alot more quiet. It was hard hearing ALL of your playing. Thanks for your post. ray |

Right on John! Excellent take on it, sort of a 'Hawaiian marching to Bethlehem' feel!

Ray, try this one. You might be having trouble hearing the 3rd verse harmonics because I missed so many of them. |

Nice work John! My wife just walked in and said "Awesome...how can we get that on our Christmas mix CD"...
I'd consider that quite a compliment! |

John,
Your second effort did improve the balance and it sounded better.
Thanks for your contribution to this Christmas season.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
