Emile Champion - The Christmas Shoes - Daniel/Carswell/Ahlstrom/Newsong - cover - 12/12/19 The Christmas Shoes.. a challenge, on a few levels... changed the opening key... my Bridge is different... took two full "takes"... I think this is the better of the two, but just slightly... I was rushing, because the 8:45 Sunday Choir was starting to come into the church, and I kept expecting the big organ to be turned on... would have liked one more shot, but the choir voices started warming up... and they practice close to my “recording studio”... and they definitely have first dibs... I think it's pretty good... but please let me know your thoughts... thanks for listening...

Emile Champion - Dream A Little Dream of Me - Schwandt/Andre/Kahn/Mamas & Papas - cover - 10/20/19 This is a do-over, of the song I uploaded a few days ago...

Emile Champion - To Where You Are - Marx/Thompson/Groban - cover - 9/13/19 New song... actually found it this late this afternoon, typed it up, and wrote in the chords... believe it or not, I was searching under “songs by Josh Groban”... knew it would need to be scaled way back, from what he does, but his songs are very beautiful, so.... definitely acoustic and very subdued, compared to the recording I found from Josh Groban... but I think it came out pretty well... hope you enjoy it... thanks for listening....
