Day 3 of the Christmas Music Countdown....." Father Christmas"....


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everyday I will try to post a simple Christmas Messege and some music and some art, mostly music and art that has not been seen before.......my gift to you. Today it is Greg Lake's Song about "Father Christmas". If you click the title you can read about the Live Performance done more recently, but the audio of the older version is better...the art is a painting by Norman Rockwell that I had never seen, but is so ageless and soothing...it makes me crave Vermont.......Have a good rest of the day.....

My son when he was about three used to say " Peas On Earth " to people at Christmas time...it was a phrase he loved, even though he hated Peas.....it still makes me smile.....and look at peas a bit more lovingly....
“Nothing that I can do will change the structure of the universe. But maybe, by raising my voice I can help the greatest of all causes - goodwill among men and peace on earth" Albert Einstein.....

Give peas a chance!

(ps, I didn't know any of ELP were still doing anything. I still get goosebumps over "Lucky Man")
