Default Practical Standards Study Group Dec. Song Poll

This month we voted for a Christmas Song (actually it was a tie between a Christmas song and a 12 Bar Blues, what are you going to do?). These tunes were tunes mentioned by forum members and I added a couple.

Have at it...

And a version, which seems to have been inspired by Mingus, by some kids:

I went with "We Three Kings." Sounds like it'd be fun to arrange jazzy...

It's a tie... again. Dang!

And I didn't vote, I was saving my vote as a tie breaker if needed, but got distracted this morning and the poll closed a few minutes before I checked in.

I'm going to see if I have a lead sheet for either of those tunes. That may be the deciding factor.

I've got the lead sheet for The Christmas Song but not for Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, so...

The new thread for the Study Group - The Christmas Song - is here:
