Saturday Filler-Part 15
One last record before the clock strikes midnight. From the Beatle-adjacent file, this is a Christmas record issued to fans in 1979, Billy J. Kramer-Blue Christmas (Hobo 7" 45 RPM HOS 010, Stereo, 1979). Enjoy!

Interesting that Billy J. Kramer still had a fan base in 1979.
ReplyDeleteProbably not much of one, given the relative scarcity of this record. :)
DeleteSlightly slower than the Elvis version, with just a touch of a Country beat. Does have that nostalgic mid-1950's Doo-Wop flavor. It's good , but not as great as his 1964 hit "Bad To Me". Thanks for bringing this one to my attention.
ReplyDeleteI think Elvis hung over just about every other version ever made that doesn't go back to Ernest Tubb. But even then...
