Duh! Now I get it. Electric guitar and bass recorded without benefit of amplifier or direct plug into a mixer. Way cool! And the added bonus of the percussion effect of your fingers against the strings - advancing the status of your chordophones to that of a percussion instrument!
I don't think I have heard a recording like this before.

Excellent! I think the recording sounds great... but then that's how I record everything. Dig the whistleing reverb.
I was surprised that your phone didn't ring while you had the open mics on...

Very nice man!@ I have tried that method of recording with an electric but did not get the results you did!
Procrastination unite...Well executed song man! Your vocals are smooth..
Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow?! Great song!

Good song and different sound, nice.
Amen.Defy labels.

The gunshot makes me smile everytime
Real nice Reef. Pro level track man.
Love the cello. Love the harmonies. Love the backing guitar work. Hate the phone. Your phone is the devil.
You are definately not living in middle C. Let me know when you hear that knocking at the door, so we can both charge through it...
I love the music and the vocals are excellent.
Sounds great fun. Lovely atmosphere!
Cool little ditty, love the vocal effect (I think Alice Cooper used it in one of his songs) but worked really well.
Excellent!
Another beauty.....loved it
excellent.....
This is brilliant

Thareks guitar work and your vocals fit perfectly. Great christmas song! fav
man, what a powerful sound. Cant help but think of Jim Morrison a bit with the lyric inflections.
Ha! thats a good ear Norm. I was going to edit the phone out but figured no one would notice it- I think theres a reactionary expletive in there too
