NSTS Episode 089 – Xmas with Triumph Guitarist Rik Emmett, Part I

Time to get into the Christmas spirit, friends. And who better to help us do that than Triumph guitar wiz and Christmas music guru Rik Emmett? 

Rik has once again graciously invited me into his home, this time to record two special NSTS episodes featuring his favourite Christmas songs (Rik insisted it be two episodes – there was simply too much ground to cover). In addition to sharing an immense amount of fascinating musical knowledge and enthusiasm, Rik also takes down one of his electric guitars from the wall to play some of the Xmas songs that make his skin vibrate. If you have ANY interest in music whatsoever, you cannot miss this. For me, it just doesn’t get any better. What a way to close out a fantastic year, folks. Enjoy!     

Emmett’s playlist:

Vince Gill – Winter Wonderland

Bing Crosby – I’ll Be Home For Christmas

Judy Garland – Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Nat King Cole – The Christmas Song

Leroy Anderson – Sleigh Ride
