OK, OK... aka "Why this doc can't quit day job..."

I'm always in awe of the talent here so I'm embarassed to post this, but I know there's a lot of love here for amateurs like me so a couple beers, the holiday spirit in the basement for a couple hours, and my friend's idea to do something different leads to...

Bongo comes home for Christmas.

Eh gawd, don't mind my crappy guitar playing. I am not good at things with six strings :eek:, but I think my Bongo sounds nice :)

Nothing wrong with that Man! I enjoyed that very much. The guitar part was fine ... and the Bongo sounds solid. Merry Christmas to all.

Thanks, guys! Oh no, I wish that were me singing. That's my friend Brian. Happy Holidays! I just laid down the instrumental tracks. Our lead guitar player did the solo but he said the rhythm chords were to "jazzy" so I fumbled through that.

:D

I don't have an electric six-stringer (guitar) so I borrowed my cousin's MIA Strat. It's nice and sometimes it makes me want to learn how to play the guitar.

We wanted the whole band to record the song, but people were are so busy with Christmas shopping etc, that we couldn't find the time so just Brian and I slammed it together for fun with a drum machine.

When I read the Eagles chart for the bassline I just love how sometimes they make things so simple yet elegant. Reminds me how important the song is.
