Details:
The working title of this collection of Christmas songs was called "Christmas II" mainly because it was my second Christmas CD. I then decided to name it after the heart felt Vocal arrangement featuring R&B singer and collaborator "Joaquin". The CD covers a lot of ground stylistically from my various musical influences Jazz, Pop, R&B, Brazilian, Smooth Jazz, Flamenco and Classical. There''s something here for everyone... Well almost everyone sorry no rock guitar maybe the next one! The song "Home for the Holidays" "Winter Wonderland" are jazzy toe tappin'' shifters and the lush Brian McKnight''s "Let It Snow" originally performed by the Backstreet Boys and the moving rendition of Natale Cole''s version of "My Grown-up Christmas List". Ending the collection is the lyrical and ever popular holiday classical guitar duet of two guitars on J.S. Bach''s "Jesu, Joy of Man''s Desiring".

Produced by: Phil Sheeran
