| | 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:

| | 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. |
