A Charlie Brown Christmas
esterday, we decked the halls with boughs of holly and fa la la la la’d right into the festive spirit. We went and chopped down our Christmas tree, and this wasn’t such a easy achievement! THe first tree farm we went to was closed (we assume the owner was at his normal place [...]
The Animals: We’ve Gotta Get Out of This Place
The Animals in 1965 rocked the blues as if they were on a ferry crossing the Irish Sea in Winter. Eric Burdon’s vocals excels on this track. I love the description of his vocals that wikipedia uses – “Eric Burdon’s vocals range from a calm whisper to a primal roar.” This song is over forty [...]

The Animals: It's My Life
Flipping on my last.fm station this morning I was greeted to It’s My Life from The Animals. It’s My Life is not only one of my favorite tracks by the Animals but it’s also one of my most loved tracks from the British Invasion Era. This was released in 1965 and featured on the [...]
