I use the acoustic jazz style on the S-950, second variation, tempo of 72. For the right hand, I use a jazz guitar and for the bridge, I use the default OTS sax voice.

Works for me,

Add some major 7ths....a few minor 9ths....walk a few minor progressions at the right time and Don's version works great.

Ho Ho!

I think we do a lot of this without it being written down. You gotta FEEL it as you go.
Did you hear about the little girl who asked Santa for a baby sister? He told her "Sure, send me your mother"!

2. Clyde, the brown-nosed reindeer (he was directly behind Rudolph when Rudolph came to a sudden stop).

I like ALMOST all of them ... I play "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" only by request because 1) I LOVED my Grandma, and 2) my WIFE is a grandma ! ...

Figured I would jump in with both feet, and post this ... I use a 'SLOW
SWING BRUSH' style on the Pa900, and recorded on the kb ...

Thanks Donny ... I could do it a little higher, but I like doing the modulation at the end and playing from Bb to C is easy and requires little work for a song I only play one month out of the year ... grin
