It's not Christmas until ... ?

Many moons ago, for a few years, my mother lived with her great-uncle--and I spent a couple pleasant Christmases visiting there. During one of these I said to my mother, as a Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers Christmas video came on TV: It's not Christmas until we hear Dolly and Kenny.

But without a video channel playing in the background, how can I now mark the start of the festive season? Well this evening I remembered: It's no Christmas until I've laughed at Bob Dylan's Christmas album.

It's become such a tradition with me, I may have to buy a couple tracks one year. But in the meantime... there's youtube.



Now if this cheered you up, just you hope I can successfully upload some tracks from the Symphonic cover album of Purple Rain I sampled this week. Tears were rolling down my face.
