I am performing 24 hours a day, seven days a week at carlvasta.com with 10 Christmas selections from my album "It's Christmas" and other original songs on my website. You can listen to or download the songs free in three different speeds: 32kbs for dial up, 128kbs for fast connections, and now Christmas songs at 320kbs (CD quality) for fastest connections. It contains seven original selections: If The Little Baby Jesus Hadn't Been Born, / Invitation, / The Christmas Child, / Christmas Is For Children / The Lord's Prayer (A New Version), / It's Christmas,  and the new Mall-Mart At Three In The Morning plus a traditional carol I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day , by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and six traditional carols in a medley called Christmas Carols. The most popular download is my fun version of Bluegrass Jingle Bells. Listen to other original songs from my website featuring: A New Valentines Song, a new instrumental The Smiling Kitty, / New Easter and Gospel Songs, / New Country Songs, and a new semi-classical piece, Stephen's Song . "Bluegrass Jingle Bells" was also used by the Danish Boy Scouts as their signature tune for a daily radio broadcast. They recorded a continuing story each day in December based on the input of their listeners, making the story 'a bit odd and twisted - and quite funny.' "Bluegrass Jingle Bells" is also being used for a video game in Poland called "Santa's Workshop." The creator of the game said he found out many people were coming to the site just to hear the song! This year they are using "The Smiling Kitty" for another game they have created. Seven of the Christmas Songs I wrote are featured by MP3s, MIDIs  and Sheet Music, in the music section of a site called: And my Christmas midi files are featured on a site called: "Christmas All The Year Round" Three of my Christmas Songs, "Bluegrass Jingle Bells," "It's Christmas", and a medley of carols describing the birth of Jesus called "Christmas Carols", are featured on a site called: Feels Like Christmas My Christmas Album was reviewed in 2004 by Christmas Reviews.com, which exists for the purpose of celebrating Christmas music and other seasonal music. It features reviews of CDs on the site, focusing the attention on outstanding independent label and artist releases--records that are often difficult to locate through conventional distribution channels, providing people an opportunity to see and hear music they might not otherwise find out about at all.
