The Daily Boost #367
Put on your green sleeves!
“Greensleeves” is the same tune used for “What Child Is This?”, a holiday favorite of many people. Whichever way you think of it, this is a great instrumental rendition to enjoy, featuring Kenny Burrell on the guitar.
What’s one of your favorite songs, this time of year?
(My thanks to Kenny Burrell and friends.)

Oh Come oh Come Emmanuel - the words need to be tweaked a bit for our times but I do love the carol! I Wonder As I Wander is also a big favorite. And then I love Silent Night.... especially sung in German ❤️
I love "Greensleeves," I used to enjoy playing it on the piano, and I love the jazzy version. One of my favorite sacred Christmas songs is "O Holy Night." I recently found out more backstory of how the song was created, which gave me a greater appreciation of it.
