Amazing Grace

Thought I'd jump in to the holiday spirit at the last second: Here is a version of Amazing Grace I did back in 2003 for guitar, 2 musical saws, and xylophone (the toy kind with wheels that you drag around by a string). Recorded into Cubase via the tiny microphone on my old 12" powerbook.

Oh my god, this is wonderful. My favorite part is how far away that xylophone sounds, like it's in another room.

Musical saws, YES! They sound like holiday spirits. That xylophone sounds like it's in another dimension.

Oh, the harmonizing saws are very nice.
