All I Want For Christmas, Dear, Is You (Buck Owens and Don Rich)

NOTES IN GENERAL

The good people at GEST Songs of Newfoundland and Labrador ... http://www.wtv-zone.com/phyrst/audio/nfld/ ... have recently featured a couple of my cover songs on their website. I have been humbled an honoured bytheir kind and helpful words.

It was also mentioned to me that a lot of the songs they have in their archive do not have video/audio
to go with them, I want this to change! Over the next while, I will be recording these songs which may
or may not be featured on the GEST site, but MUST be shared so they do not become forgotten footnotes in
the music of the Atlantic provinces.

Most of the songs I will be recording, I have never heard, but rather, I have the chords for so I play
them to myself and some up with my own style for it. If I am WAY off base, please record a video and
respond to this, it's all about sharing the beautiful music.

NOTES ON THIS SONG

Well, OK ... OK, this song is not of Newfoundland origin, in fact, it's an old Buck Owens tune dating from 1965, co-written by Don Rich (in my video credits I only give credit to Buck, sorry about that).

However, it does have a nice "down home" appeal when I hear it and reminds me to that if I didn't have my lovely girl in my life, her company would be the only thing I would truly desire (but if she's reading this then I want a present .... :P)

It's a little early for Christmas, in fact, the date I recorded this, it was 1:20am in Halloween!

Why do a Christmas song?

Well, I am going through the GEST archive in alphabetical order, tackling each song as they come, and this was the next on my list!

I hope you like it.

Cheers.

Travis
