Earlier this week, I had the pleasure of playing my Sho-Bud on some holiday tunes with a couple friends (James Beaupre on bass and Eric Barao on keys). Here we are, playing one of my all-time favorites: “Christmastime is Here” by Vince Guaraldi.

I mostly worked from Peter Hart's E9 transcription found in this thread:

I hope someone enjoys this as much as we did playing it. I haven't had much formal instruction, so I welcome constructive feedback on my playing.

Decent job on this classic. I believe you need to play with a little more authority. I know it's a soft tune, but a bit more volume and will create more confidence in your music.

That was great Matt! Loved the "tag" on the end.
That old ShoBud sounds great.

Thanks Matt for posting the video. I for one do not play jazz tunes very well and admire you for doing so. Keep the videos coming.

I remember this from a couple years ago Matt... loved the production of it, and your FLY outfits.
