Santa Is A Weatherman
Hey, folks, thanks for coming back. Please be sure to check the sidebar for links to more "non-traditional" Holiday music sites. I personally recommend each and every one of 'em.
And don't forget to request a re-post from any previous years' Holiday postings. We're in a giving mood here at the snow-capped Chicago Mountain.
So, let's go traveling, honky-tonk style, today. To the biggest states in the Union.
One of the holy three of Hanks, Mr. Hank Thompson takes us beyond the lower 48 to a land where it's Christmas everyday. Don't tell the kids about this.
Texas swing revivalists Asleep At The Wheel heat things up a bit with a trip down, well, Texas way, covering a classic Ernest Tubb tune.
It's Frosty and Toasty!

ReplyDeleteWanda's "Rockabilly Santa Claus" was my favorite track from here last year. Went right out and bought me some Wanda as a result (well, technically, used the Internets, so I didn't "went right out" anywhere).
ReplyDeletePoint is...Thanks, as always!
