Top Ten Best Auld Lang Syne Downloads & Auld Lang Syne Downloads Record

Can you name the top ten best Auld Lang Syne downloads & download recordings?
Thousands of artists have performed or released renditions of the New Year’s Eve staple Auld Lang Syne. Here are the Top 10 Best Auld Lang Syne recordings & downloads of all time. Most downloads pale in comparison to these gems:

1. Auld Lang Syne: Scott West & Sex On Sunday (November 2006)
Featuring Tesla guitarist Frank Hannon and Sex On Sunday’s Scott West, this version of Auld Lang Syne begins with West’s dynamic piano and strings swelling into Hannon’s searing guitar work. West’s arrangement deserves top honors for its beautiful textures, riveting crescendos, fueled by the magnificently fresh power and tone of Hannon’s burning fret work. This warm arrangement brings an edgy, contemporary vibe to the song, making it the best recording of this holiday classic and most popular Myspace Auld Lang Syne download.

#1 New Years Eve Song Ringtone On The Web!

2. Auld Lang Syne: Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians (Dec. 1947)
Decades of New Year’s radio and television broadcasts popularized Guy Lombardo’s big band arrangement of Auld Lang Syne. Lombardo has two well-known renditions of the song. The most recent was released in 1947 by Decca Records and is the best big band recording. Lombardo's name is synonymous with New Year's Eve and he is often billed as "the only Canadian to have popularized an American tradition" and as "the sweetest sound this side of heaven." ITunes.com

3. Auld Lang Syne: Kenneth McKellar (1995)
McKellar’s smooth glistening voice and the orchestral arrangement make this the standout operatic version of Auld Lang Syne. It features excellent recording quality with stunning vocals and arrangement. This is my favorite Auld Lang syne download with vocals.http://www.maybole.org/community/celebrations/christmas/greetings/AuldLangSyne2.mp3

4. Same Old Lang Syne: Dan Fogelberg (1981)
Fogelberg’s Same Old Lang Syne is not the traditional version, but it ends with a beautiful saxophone solo of the traditional melody. This song features a compelling modern day story about meeting one’s old lover in a grocery store. Over the years, it has become a holiday radio and download favorite. ITunes.com

5. Auld Lang Syne: Bing Crosby (1949)
How can you not love the smooth, melodic voice of one of the all-time greatest crooners singing one of the world’s most famous songs? There’s a reason Crosby got a Grammy award for singing holiday music in 1947. His buttery voice melts through every word and note. ITunes.com

6. Auld Lang Syne: Ronnie Browne (1999)
Linn Records recording of Auld Lang Syne by Ronnie Brown is the best Scot-influenced interpretation. This recording is part of a collection of songs written by Scottish poet Robert Burns that was produced by Dr. Fred Freeman. This simple arrangement showcases The Corries famous lead singer and the traditional Scottish arrangement of the holiday classic.

7. Auld Lang Syne: The Beach Boys (1965)
The Beach Boys included a harmonized a-capella version of Auld Lang Syne on their 1965 Christmas album. This version has more appeal than the band’s other version with the voice over that buries those amazing Beach Boy harmonies. This is a great a-capella recording. ITunes.com

8. Auld Lang Syne: Kenny G (2002)
Kenny G’s millennium mix includes an audio collage of historic political and entertainment tidbits from the 20th Century. Walter Afanasieff co-produced this recording and Dave Foxx & Lou Simon produced and arranged the audio collage portion, which is historic and remarkable. Kenny G's Auld Lang Syne download should be part of your holiday music collection.

9. Auld Lang Syne: Jimi Hendrix (Recorded LIVE December 31, 1969)
The recording quality of this version does not measured up to Hendrix’ legendary oeuvre or his other famous performances. Recorded at the opening of Hendrix’ second set at the Fillmore East on December 31, 1969 to January 1, 1970, this version does not reach Hendrix’ dynamic “Star Spangled Banner” in intensity, dynamics or recording quality, but is still a noteworthy rendition.

10. Auld Lang Syne: The Highland Pipers (1998)
This sweet, instrumental recording features a soft Scottish flute playing the melody line, not bagpipes. This is the most laid back of the top ten and is well suited for a romantic-candle-lit New Years evening for two. It is the last track on the Highland Pipers “Highland Christmas: Carols For Scottish Bagpipes.”

“This (Scott West's "California Christmas") is a wonderful holiday album with several songs destined to be December classics!"
Jon Coleman

SAY HELLO TO THE SOUNDS OF 2008
"If you think hearing "Auld Lang Syne" on New Year's is bound to be ho-hum, you're humming the wrong tune. On the Web, you can find a myriad of exciting alternative renditions for the stroke-of-midnight classic, including the riveting arrangement by Scott West and Sex On Sunday featuring poignant piano and soaring electric guitars..."
Paul Freeman
Palo Alto Daily News

"Scott West's Auld Lang Syne has a beautiful melodic proportion and inebriating bridge section that make this the all-time best recording of Auld Lang Syne."

Guitar Lessons in your home!

posted: November 17, 2009, 10:28 AM

Replyclick here

My teaching method varies from student to student... I try to find the
needs of the student and take the student in that direction... I
strongly resist teaching a curriculum. With anything in life, and
especially music, the student's potential, work ethic, and musical
interests are never the same. Thus, it would be unwise of me to hand
every single student the same old wheel of fifths, C major scale, a
few melodies and expect them to "play" guitar. e.g., I currently have
a student that never wanted to learn music theory; she just wants to
play songs... This is why I don't have a method I use for everybody...
I guess you could say my style is much more personal than generic. I
make a CD for each lesson and draw out a plan; when the lesson
caters to the student, I learn more about teaching as well.

What is your experience, including teaching of young students?

I have been teaching lessons for nine years now; I have a BA in
music... I started playing the viola as a child, then took on guitar,
piano, drums, bass, organ, and singing; I feel that learning the
instruments has benefited my ability to show others what I know. The
youngest student I've had is 7... the oldest are in their sixties... I
have taught music theory, guitar theory (scales, chords, modes, etc.),
jazz, and mainly, rock guitar (for example, Eric Clapton, Led
Zeppelin, Phish, The Kinks, Beatles, etc.).

where do you teach: in a studio? your home? our home?

I make house calls. It is more convenient for you this way. If you
live near San Jose, there is no extra charge. If you live more than 20
miles from me, I add $7 for gas. Parents are always welcome and
encouraged to attend sessions...

What is your fee?

I charge $25 per half hour and $35 per hour. I strongly recommend
hour-long lessons; there is only so much that can be done in a half
hour. If you are interested in lessons, call me at 520 975 8062.
Good luck in your search for a teacher and on your musical journey!
