You are a month too late on finding this site though, as last months theme for the MP3 of the Month contest was "National Anthems." Great job...Top notch!

Thanks man!
Yeah, I caught that you guys had done the Nat'l Anthem theme, but this really isn't a guitar feature anyway....and it's the only version I've done....
Anyway......it's a live performance with a full band and horns; recorded last year.....I'm a full time arranger, it's part of what I do....screw with familiar melodies and give them a new "home".
While we're at it on the "patriotic theme", check out my version of My Country Tis of Thee from 1997, from a live performance:
