Christmas 2012 will be here before you know it!

 

Shane Speal and Dan Sleep have organized the Christmas album in previous years, Dan asked me if I would like to help coordinate it for this year!  (-:

 

For any of the new folks here on the Nation, we have compiled a yearly album of songs played, composed and sung by our members.

The primary requirement is that the recording be of good quality, for example, If you are singing, we want to be able to hear your voice! 

The 2009 Christmas album contained 23 songs, 2010 Christmas contained 40 songs, 2011 contained 18 songs. More songs is not necessarily better, but we really don't have a limit on the number of songs we can include.

 There has been a tremendous response to CB Nation collab projects this year, let's top the year off with with a

CRACKER CHRISTMAS ALBUM! 

The amazing Artwork for the album cover has again been generously donated by Thomas Boatwright ...!

You can submit a cover of a traditional ("non copyrighted") song, or you can do something you wrote/composed yourself.

 Please respond in this thread if you would like to participate!

...and include the song that you would like to have included in the album. Once we have the final album compiled, it will be posted as a free download, and anyone will be able to download it. So, you will be able to pass the links along to your friends and family!

Members' names and songs will be published here on this header,  completed MP3 files can be emailed to me at....

 

 

 

Download presentation page is currently being prepared, watch for further details!

 

IT'S READY!

Steve, please put me down for "God Rest You merry Gentlemen" . Got an idea what gonna do with it.

Changed my mind, Steve. Can I have SILENT NIGHT. This song has a very strong early childhood memory. Ma late mum singing it. When Christmas approaches, as soon as I hear the first strains of this, I get pretty emotional. But given enough takes, I'll get it "down" for album. (see, gettin "maudlin "already) lol   (not REALLY lol)

Clock I raise you to 40!

Thanks, Steve, won't let ya down. Silent Night, for ma mum (R.I.P>)

Good idea!  Please put me down for Roger  Miller's  Little Toy Trains

Unk ya might have to rethink ad Steve.said mo copyright songs .

got one sort of worked out...so put me down for "jolly old St Nicholas" not copyrighted and in the public domain.

i have a tune. put me down for "who shot santa"

Was it JR? Would make a "good twist" , Merle! lol

 I'll take White Chritmas Steve  if there is not a problem fun fun fun.
