This is a note-for-note transcription of the Christmas hit, “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”, by Brenda Lee. As listed, this features the lead vocal, the main guitar, the tenor saxophone, and the double bass. It is probably no coincidence that this single was released a year after “Jingle Bell Rock”, another Christmas song in the Rock genre, which also featured Hank Garland in the same role of playing high fills on the electric guitar. Enjoy!
