Slade's Merry Xmas - and that Bb chord...

I find it funny how complex a lot of Christmas songs are when you compare them to 'the usual' songs in your average cover band's setlist.

Carols are great for practising your harmony. Just try playing the chords to any old carol like O Come All Ye Faithful - it’s a great musical workout

Or better still, harmonising the melody a la Ted Greene from Chord Chemistry. Brilliant for getting triads and their inversions together!
