Thanks so much my friend, you take care now, J. X.

Yes, 42 years of marriage, I had to watch the end to know what you were talking about.J.X.

Thank you for that comment. It seems that the main thing people listen for is a nice sound. I am not a "shredder", but the sound has developed over many years, and I think the tone quality speaks for itself. Thanks for your words of encouragement, J. X.

Yeah, I think there was harmonica on the original. Thanks again my friend, J. X.

Thanks mate, same to you and yours, J. X.

Thanks big Vick, have a great new year, J. X.

Thanks my friend, and to you, have a great new years as well, J. X.

Yeah, I get carried away at Christmas. We'll be back to regularly scheduled videos again Friday. Thanks Totsy! J. X.

Thanks mate. a couple of my favorites on the concertina, J. X.

Thanks mate, they can be very tricky, and there's 3 distinctly different types, confusing to many. J. X.

I'm just parroting what I read on Wikipedia. Thanks mate, J. X.

Thanks mate, great to hear from you, J. X.

Yes, written by Franz Gruber, (music), and Joseph Mohr, lyrics. There's a great, very old black and white video they made about how that song came about. It's an old black and white film, short. One of my favorite little christmas films that tell the story of the song. thanks mate, J. X.

I was so surprised when I saw this came from 1984, It just seemed more recent than that, take care, J. X.

Another tune from the Germans. I love Vince Guaraldi's version, and all his music from the Charlie Brown christmas as well, Have a great holiday. J. X.

Thanks ,mate. I was losing faith in my alto, then I decided to upgrade to a better mouthpiece. The old basic mouthpiece was very basic. As I started using the alto more it felt like something was lacking. The basic mouthpiece was fine for like classical, but it just wouldn't add any "color". This is jody jazz mouthpiece, #5, And plasticover reeds, # 2's. Probably more info that you needed, but someone else visiting might be curious, My best regards to you mate, J. X.

Hi Totsy, I love that moniker. Yes, the definition of the word prodigy, hope you are well mate, J. X.

I'm so glad you liked it Anne, thanks so much for your appreciation. I really like your stuff! Happy Holidays, John X.

No mate, my wife uploads the video, then I write the description and add it in. You'll see it there now. J. X.

Thanks Tom, do you folks also do thanksgiving? take care my friend. J. X.

No mate we don’t

This was always a fave. of mine as well. Thanks my friend, take care, J. X.

Thanks mate. A very versatile instrument, the flute. Kind regards J. X.

I had a music teacher tell me long ago, that he thought you used more air playing flute than playing Tuba. His logic was that you use all the air going into a Tuba, whereas with a flute half of the air doesn't go into the instrument. So, basically, it all comes down to efficiency. Thanks for your comments mate, see you next time, J. X.

Hi Tom, I looked at wikapedia and it mentioned a musical called, " Connie's Hot Chocolates, and it said Louis Armstrong was the musical director of the orchestra, and they had him go up on stage and play this song. Always great to hear from you mate, take care, J. X."

Thanks so much Tom, great to hear from you, hope things are well across the pond, J. X.

Wow I had no idea it was that popular. I wasn't sure if I would use it, but as I said, I always liked the song, Thanks, my number 1 fan, J. X.

Thanks, I appreciate your appreciation, kind regards, J. X.

Yeah he is. Nat, Sinatra and Bennett are probably my big 3. Thanks Tom, J. X.

Yeah, I do to my friend, Take care till next time, J. X.

And many thanks to you Vic, thanks for your kind comment, nice to hear from you, J. X.

Hey Ryan, thanks so much for that comment, regards, J. X.

Thanks so much, I love playing them on flute. Some I've played on concertina and accordion. I will likely do some of those sometime. Also on my alto flute. Thanks for writing a bunch of great tunes, J. X.

Thank you Miss Delong, I'm glad you liked it. Take care my friend, J. X.
