As I write this, the US government is shut down because of a squabble over the funding of a wall between the US and Mexico. Thousands of people aren't being paid, important functions of government aren't happening and the world looks at us and laughs. I don't know if things are truly worse than they were when Senator Dirksen recorded this album, but they sure seem like it. I'll get off my soapbox and let you download this time capsule. This is
Everett McKinley Dirksen At Christmas Time (Capitol ST 2792, Stereo, 1967). I first shared this with you in
2012, and it's never been back since. Tonight, it's back and at a better bitrate. Enjoy!
