Merry Christmas and Happy Groovin" New Year to everyone who hangs here!
We spent Christmas with my daughter and grandson and family in Pacifica CA (about 15 miles south of San Francisco)
Any way I do the cooking and shopping and had to go to the local market (not a chain) and for 2 things
and while shopping I hear this pretty hip Christmas music. I then realized it was the MF medley but second guessed myself because of the NON flugel/trumpet switch in "Chestnuts". (I was running around the place trying to fine the best sound over the freezers,etc)
When they sang Silent Night I realized that they were playing the ORIGINAL recording.
I must have looking like a lunatic wondering around the store grooving and in tears at the same time.
It took me another 10 minutes to get my S&&& together.
Then the next day I go to Safeway and there is a young kid (maybe 10 or so) with his trumpet and music sitting and playing Christmas tunes from sheet music with tip cup! What a great idea!
I'll attach the pic from my phone when I figure out how.
