Description
This guitar lesson features an uptempo, somewhat bluesy version of the Christmas classic, “The Little Drummer Boy”. I’ve always loved that song, and wanted to create something that you can play on either acoustic or electric guitar, and yet something that also be played on it’s own with no accompaniment (we don’t always have a jam track handy). I hope you enjoy this version as much as I did arranging it!

waw amazing
Love this lesson - will use it at an upcoming blues jam - Is this song in “C” ?
It’s actually in G
Wonderful lesson - complete in every detail
Nice job. I’d be interested in a lesson discussing how you went about arranging the piece with the harmonized double-stops, triads, etc.
Enjoying this one very much, Brian. Can’t wait to try it on my new Recording King ROS-627. 🙂
brian im a newbe great things you are showing im glad i found your web i just got back playing three yrs ago thanks have a good holiday fox rocks
I must confess I was ignoring this lesson because of the title but now I see I was mistaken. This is a good exercise you can spin a lot off of. I like it.
You mention Chuck Berry….hint, hint…
I taught myself this song in drop d tuning last year. I like this version quite a bit. Thank you. The fills are very elegant yet simple and cool.
Berkley Online ad! Boo hiss boo!
Berklee. My bad but still a distracting ad.
Update windows drivers ad now. Sigh sigh sigh.
The tab pdf doesn’t seem to be working! not readable is the message
Hi Brian, is the chord progression G- F – G – Am – G – D – G – D – G?
I’d like to know this answer, too.
very cool version of this song.
This one and the Jingle Bells one are a lot of fun. I’m just going to throw in a request here for them to be in the format you have for the newer lessons. I appreciate the downloadable tab but the don’t seem to have all the juicy little extras you have in the videos. While I’m being audacious and asking for the moon, I would love to see a version of Come Let Us Adore Him here. I can’t remember a Christmas when that wasn’t requested. Thank you!
