For the player
Santa’s reindeer can’t make the hills of Italy, so the presents ride a donkey, and one verse has the families dancing a tarantella. The hee-haw is sung, not a drum part. The 1960 cut is Lou Monte with Joe Reisman’s Orchestra and Chorus. The Intro is where the chart says to hit the snare towards the edge. Open hats are marked — bark the opens. Listen first; at BPM = 113 the job is the feel.
