As Hopefully the Red Baron Won’t you Know What to this
No Fenders Post, ack Ack Ack!
“Everybody Knows A Turkey and some
Missletoe
Helps to Keep the Season Bright!”
Although neither Snoopy or thou Red Baran will be taking Off today, since Thars actually a very rare arrival of Snow here in Ye Utter’ Florence, which is a rarity due to our proximity to Sea level Ho Ho Ho!
Guess it was just Mwah who initially thought that
since Veteran’s Day was on a Thursday this year, that the following day was “Black
Friday,” Righto?
As I spent All Day Friday (Nov 12th) thinking
this since Cool FM, Eugene’s 99.1FM Radio Station which some of us can pick up
sporadically on Ye Oregon Coast via Florence’s Transmitter had begun Thar Holiday
Programming early this year…
since they’d begun Thar Gory Eight weeks or is
it Thee Number Nine? No. 9 Numeral Nein? Nonstop 24/7 Nothing but Ack Ack Ack
Christmas Songs Barrage thru New Years.
Although I sort of enjoy this since it’s the only
time ‘O year Yuhs can Hear such Classics as John Lennon’s so this is Christmas,
The Beach Boys ‘lil Saint Nick “run run Reindeer” song. Or I want A Hippopotamus
for Christmas. Alvin and The Chipmunks, chuck Berry’s run run Rudolf, You’re A
Mean One Mr. Grinch along with other various Classics like Bing Crosby and
David Bowies Peace On Earth/Little
Drummer Boy Duet et Al.
Not to mention I always hear some Vintage Christmas
song I haven’t heard before. As last year I spent several weeks trying to
figure out that it was The Carpenters singing Sleigh ride from their 1978 Album
Christmas Portrait, but I digress.

Since I did get a Smile on my face when hearing for the very first time ever this November The Ballad of Snoopy’s Yuletide Dogfight!

As the song is by The Royal Guardsmen, a
Florida Rock Band who later became known as the “Snoopy Band!” As their Snoopy
Christmas song was recorded in 1966. With the song reaching No. 2 on the
billboard Hot 100 and was certified Gold in early ’67.
Funniest bit ‘O trivia is the Band
recorded the song without Charles Schulz’s initial permission. So their record
label Up North Eh! In Ye Great White North of Oh Kanaduh’ refused to release it
due to potential legal issues Stateside with Messer Schulz.
So the Band put out a very blatant
re-issue called Squeaky ant The Black Knight Up North Eh! Which also became
popular in Ye Frozen Tundra before Schulz gave his permission for the song.
Hence, naturally I got a Wild Hair to
“See” if I could find said Squeaky and The Black Knight Great White North “Import”
version, for which I was super Surprised that it came up almost immediately, Ja
Volt!
