Holiday Linkage.
« on: December 09, 2007, 04:54:38 PM »
Back in December 2005, I cooked up a couple of weblog posts to drop some music (and assorted musings) from two of my fave Christmas specials -- the mindblowing Emmett Otter's Jug-Band Christmas (1977) and Christmas Eve on Sesame Street (1978).  The first link contains the complete EOJ-BC soundtrack, a Recidivism exclusive!

Easy Riders, Singing Muppets, Part 1 (includes a link to an interview with Emmett Otter in which he references The Jesus Lizard and Steve Albini).

Easy Riders, Singing Muppets, Part 2.

This might have been more appropriate for the Fake Movie Posters post, but anyway, some old Holiday Greeting Cards with my kids in starring roles:

No longer afraid of abduction, Rainer?

No, I guess not.  They've all got moustaches now, so it's unlikely they'll be recognized in the flesh.  Where's my chippy?

Erika,

I'd be a fool to try to one-up a Supercaller, but I actually prefer this link for "Christmastime for the Jews":

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7660264976994002478&q=christmastime+for+the+jews&total=7&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=1

'Cause this version has the closing credits :)



And because I don't like horn-tooting without leaving something under the tree, here's a video of a teenage girl lip-synching to the Waitresses' "Christmas Wrapping," which I find charming.
