Friends of Christmas Present:
This is the 10th year my son Woody and I have recorded a Christmas song. Others
we've done in years past:
2009 "Star of Bethlehem"
2010 "Silent Night"
2011 "Silver Bells"
2012 "Blue Christmas"
2013 "White Christmas"
2014 "Winter Wonderland"
2015 "The Friendly Beasts"
2016 "Away in a Manger"
2017“The First Noel”
For 2018 we've recorded "Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town". Woody did the
recording, mixing, and sang harmony. Dad sang lead and played the guitar and bass. I
used an 09 Martin Marquis for guitar, and Woody’s fretted bass.
“Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town" is a 1970 stop motion Christmas television special
produced by Rankin/Bass Productions. The film stars Fred Astaire as the narrator S.D.
Kluger, Mickey Rooney as Kris Kringle / Santa Claus, Keenan Wynn as the Winter
Warlock, and Paul Frees in various roles.
The film tells the story of how Santa Claus and several Claus-related Christmas traditions
came to be. It is based on the hit Christmas song "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town",
which was introduced on radio by Eddie Cantor in 1934.
Please enjoy, and Woody and I wish everyone a happy and prosperous Holiday Season!
