Bob Ward

Culled from only the finest websites, I have assembled a Christmas mix sure to both please and frighten. We shall swing from the hunt-and-peck keyboard work of Mar-Tie, to the Mayfield Power & Light Company’s propagandandistic radio play, to the miraculous fingers of Bob Ward as they dance across his organ. Because, really, isn’t this what the Christmas season is all about — feeling uncomfortable while strange people try to dazzle you with their Christmas cheer; having products/services forced upon you by companies all wrapped up in Christmas gift wrap; listening to your relatives gathered round the piano warbling holiday tunes; high-pitched Chipmunk-like singing; and Santa in a Jeep?
