Thanks, Michael. I'd like to play something from that book, in church. I think I really need to get my feet wet, and play in public.

I am having trouble with the file. I end up with pages of computer code. Any hints?
Thanks.

Let me also add my thanks, Michael. Nice arrangements of some beautiful tunes.

I'd like to add my voice to the chorus of thanks. Great idea, and special thanks for including all of those piano-centric Bb and F versions!
Michael - Thanks from another!
I'd strongly encourage all other relative newbies to download and utilize this great resource. The tabs are very easy to read and understand, the arrangements are exceptional, and we are all so familiar with these songs that following the tabs is quite easy.
I've uploaded clips (lets call them audio clips since I used my Dell webcam to record them and the video is terribly out of sync) of performances of 7 of my favorite carols from this collection to my YouTube channel. What great fun! Give it a try.
Thanks again to Michael for this great resource!

OK, seems that Fast Eddie has gotten me off the dime to post my first MP3 here.
Here's a one-take-wonder version of O Come All Ye Faithful. It's my new Mike Black A5 #5, captured with a Sony portable digital recorder using the built-in condensor mics.

Ed,
Thanks for the kind words. I learned some of the tunes from the tab posted here. Others I've learned by ear.
The mandolin is a The Loar LM-400.
I've been playing about 2 1/2 years now.
Add my thanks to Michael too.
Great job Brent. That Black is sweet. Amazing in person.
Terry, thanks. Great picken -God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman- is my favorite too. I'm getting the hang of it, maybe next Christmas.
I guess I should proffer my gratitude to Mike P for this PDF, as well. I printed some of the tunes, as they were in our Christmas program at church, & I didn't get in as much practice with the hymnal as I wanted, so I thought the cheat sheets might help. Congregation insisted it went well, though I know better.

Thought this would be a good time to bump this thread for anyone looking for Christmas tabs.
Thanks, playing at a nursing home next week and this gives us a few more options.
Time for another bump, I feel. This was a great resource for me last year.

Every little bit will help, so, check out our renewed website http://rdenronden.magix.net/public/ and watch the first video clip.
I'm still working on more Christmas songs, keep an eye on our site. Take care, Robert
You can play almost anything on a mandolin! Be creative, have fun, spread the word: Mandolins Rock!:

Thank you very much!
Thought it was time to check in again, as it's time to get ready for another Christmas. I pulled out my print outs to start from for this year. Thanks, again, MP and Cafe
