With Irene & Paul
| 1.
Deck The Halls: (Contemporary) (Irene & Paul-Acapella) On a
perfect
Christmas Eve, snow falling, the smell of a log fire, the anticipation
of Santa's bounty, and some hot refreshments, Irene and Paul were
inspired
to record each part for this great Gene Puerling arrangement. It was
memorable!

12. Church Mice A Gabieli Brass Choir, that I had
performed many times on trumpet... and so I decided to sing all of the
parts instead.
Speeding up the tape, I thought that it would make a good skit for the
Muppets, with a choir of mice singing in church.

Have Yourself A Merry
Little
Christmas: (Contemporary) (Paul) |
14.
Christmas Medley: (Traditional) (Griffin Family) This one is very special to us. I was
able to
coerce family members into taking their turn in front of the
microphones
with the proviso that "first takes" will be kept. Mother Griffin's
giggleing, while Father Griffin admonishes her, has given us many years
of laughter. Young Martha's "Good King Wenceslaus" can't help but put a
smile on your face. Carrie was "in the oven" preparing for her grand
debut onto the stage of life.
