CG/KPOO/'LNG/Xmas Week of 12/19

back to the "Xmas in Frisko" feed, at least until the KPOO Soul Show at noon.

Another Bob Rivers song I'd never heard: "Chipmunks Roasting on an Open Fire".

personal fave: Red Peters and his Swingin' Hamsters -- the uncensored version of "Holy Shit, it's Christmas", which in a bleeped version was a KFOG staple for a couple of years.

On to KPOO -- where Judge is in a disco mood with Donna Summer-does-Barry Manilow, "Could it Be Magic".

Stan Freberg's "Green Christmas" on SOMAfm just finishing up--it sounds truer and truer every year. Particularly with the current administration.

South Park's brilliant take on "Dreidel Dreidel Dreidel". Marc Shaiman is some sort of genius.

and some hair tonic on a pear tree...  

Brilliant and hilarious, and the irony is, a Jew made a record which Bill O'Reilly would agree with.

I caught most of it.  It brought me way back, to listening to my family's Webcor reel-to-reel tape recorder, to stuff we recorded from James Gabberts original FM station (what were the call letter?)

Firesign Theatre definitely influenced by this +40 year old track.

Here's one I hadn't heard on the Xmas in Frisko channel before:

If We Make It Through December

The bad news? It's Alan Jackson's version, not Merle's. Booo. Still a rather sobering take on the holiday season though, regardless of the singer.
