A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away primitive Earthlings utilized grooved vinyl to reproduce pre-recorded music and other audio entertainment. It was an elegant format, for a more civilized age…an age where an errant scratch, a bit of dust, the weight of a dozing house cat or even a few moments in the sun could ruin your recording forever. Those days have passed, and with them a few neglected curiosities like Christmas in the Stars: The Star Wars Christmas Album, an 1980 recording featuring your favorite Star Wars characters.
I’d like to share a few selections with you now:
“What do You Get a Wookiee for Christmas (When He Already Owns a Comb)”
“R2D2, We Wish You a Merry Christmas” (featuring a very young Jon Bon Jovi)
Bells, Bells, Bells
The Meaning of Christmas
The Odds Against Christmas
Sleigh Ride
My ears, my ears! Make it stop! Saying that I’d probably buy these over the x-factor song any day
