I have a favor to ask of my fellow CBR posters.
Every year I like to burn a compilation of Christmas tracks and pass out the CDs as Christmas cards. I was trying to find one of two versions of Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer for this year's disc but couldn't remember the artists so I couldn't include them for this year(although I did stumble upon a very cool New Orleans jazz version of Frosty the Snowman by Leon Redbone and Dr. John). So I can get a head-start on next year's compilation, I was wondering if you could help me locate these versions of Rudolf;
1) A swing-rock version(I wanted to say Brian Setzer Orchesrtra but didn't see it on either of their Christmas CDs), in which the line "You'll go down in history" is replaced at one point by "Play that saxophone for me."
2) A softer guitar version which included a second verse where Rudolf called the other reindeer on the way they laughed at him before Santa asked him to guide his sleigh, and the reindeer apologized for treating him so shabbily.
