First, in the holiday spirit, I offer one of my all time favorite musical directors, Henri Rene’s “The Swingin’ Stars and Stripes.”<\/a> Henri Rene’s music is not all “out there” like a Equivel. He holds it in control and puts a little something extra in there that rewards your listening.<\/p>\n

From Stars and Stipes to Stars of Strippers, I give you David Rose – “The Stipper.”<\/a> That’s America!<\/p>\n

From Stippers to Sunset Strippers, Mel Henke has his way with the tune on “77 Sunset Stripper.”<\/a> Love his stuff. It’s over the top!<\/p>\n

As always, Bring Home the Coke<\/a>. Sparkle Neely Sparkle!<\/a><\/p>\n

And be sure to bring ice on your travels<\/a> this holiday to relieve the burns and bug bites.<\/p>\n

And for your adventures, Mel Henke’s “Adventures on the Highway”<\/a> which plays on his theme for Chevrolet “See the USA in your Chevrolet.”<\/p>\n

Enjoy the Holidays!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
