Title track to "Christmas Presence" album. A monster medley using 76 layered tracks over 6 mins and covering 3 Christmas songs....this was the most involved song on the album and took the longest to complete.

I've decided to record a different version of "Greensleeves" every year. This is the version for year 2!

A fun, bouncy kind of take on this Christmas standard. I kept hearing this bass line from some 1950's song in my head as I was recording this one so I included it in the recording. Can you guess the song? :)

Happened upon some interesting keyboard voices while experimenting one day and this song was born.

Based on an old civil war camp song I heard years ago on a vinyl album (yes vinyl) that a friend played for me. It worked so nicely with "The First Noel" I had to combine the two as a medley.

This is one of the non-cover, originals that fit nicely with the other songs on this album.

Another non-cover original that fit well with the other songs. My Yamaha Motif 6 is a good little drummer.....keeps better time than me! :)

Last of the bonus tracks included from last years album, this song is a tip of the hat to one of my mentors, Mike Oldfield who wrote the unforgettable theme ("Tubular Bells) used in the movie "The Exorcist." (Gives me chills just thinking about it.)

Inspired by Michael Nyman's wonderful theme from the movie "The Piano."

A very pretty sad yet happy song....how strange the two feelings can exist in such close proximity.

A haunting and pretty song with powerful ending.

A medley of "I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day" and "Auld Lang Syne." Probably the most traditionally played songs on the whold album.
