For the next week I am putting some Great Christmas Music/Videos on the Blog instead of the usual Mixes!

One of the best versions of the classic Christmas song “White Christmas” has to be the Drifters’ recording in 1954, It has Clyde Mcphatter and Bill Pinkney on vocals.

This was featured in the Macauley Culkin film “Home Alone”

Another Great Christmas Song, not exactly Soul Music, is Jose Feliciano‘s “Feliz Navidad” (Merry Christmas in Spanish)released on his Christmas Album in 1970.
I first heard this Record featured in the Christmas Movie “Surviving Christmas” tarring Ben Affleck and James Gandolfini!

I have included both Live and Studio versions of the song!

Check out both versions, as Jose Feliciano is a great Singer!

BANDS & SINGERS I’VE SEEN IN CONCERT! part 1

Over the years I have seen several different Bands and Singers in Concert, one of the first Acts I saw was Junior Walker & the All Star’s I think it was the late 70’s or the early 80’s, I have done several searches on the Web, but cant find anything relating to the Tour!

I went with my Wife and Brother in law to Tiffany’s Night Club In Great Yarmouth UK, as I remember it was a Great Concert and Junior Walker sounded as Good Live as he does on Record!

His Great Saxophone playing was something great to hear Live!

Some other older acts I seen are The Temptations, this was the early to mid 80’s, this was around the “Treat her like a Lady” period, they were very Good as well, in fact all the Artist’s I’ve seen Live have been Great, apart from probably one or two, more of that later!

I also saw The Supremes featuring Mary Wilson, that was in the 80’s, around that same period I saw, the Drifters featuring Johnny Moore, they as I remember, put on a very long Show!

I’ve seen more of the newer Acts as well, I say “Newer” I mean 70’s and 80’s, more of that next time!
