All is merry and bright...

...and mother nature has responded to the let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! seasonal mantra of the airwaves with snow falling as I write this. : ) On Wednesday in our Passing Through feature, we heard the song So Beautiful So Blue from Patrick Fitzsimmons' album of the same title. Patrick performed at The Peekskill Coffee House Friday night and he'll be reuniting with his band From Good Homes for two shows @ The Wellmont Theatre in Montclair, NJ on 12/18 & 12/19. Check out more of Patrick's music and find out where he's performing at his web home or space. Expect to love every song on the album.

On Friday night, it was laughs and music with the award winning duo Buskin & Batteau. David and Robin are entertaining storytellers and their new album Red Shoes and Golden Hearts is a collection that will move you between laughs and inspiration. Robin mentioned that the outlook of his Uncle Woody was the stimulus for the song Choose Joy, one of my instant favorites from the album. We listened to the title track, Red Shoes and Golden Hearts and you can hear more at the Buskin and Batteau space or site. Next Saturday night, Buskin & Batteau are in the line up at a Phil Ochs Song Night at The People's Voice Cafe on E. 35th St. in NYC, show starts @ 8pm.

Our friends at The SPCA of Westchester in Briarcliff Manor always seem to know how to spread good canine cheer! It was a fab day @ Club Fit, where Santa took a break from the holiday hubbub to pose with a whole bunch of pals from his 'nice' list.

Buster from Hawthorne has a leash that says: BAD TO THE BONE!

Rocky from Tarrytown had on his Santa hat...


Schnitzle the Clown & Sandy stopped by with smiles...





Asia said 'hello' with Jana, who adopted her and is a volunteer at the SPCA. Merry, happy & joyful to all! If you're thinking of welcoming unconditional love into your home this holiday season or in the new year, please consider The SPCA of Westchester, where you can also provide support with a donation of dog or cat food or contact them to find out what is most needed.
Since the holiday tunes are rollin' on WHUD, a reminder that you can sing along even if you forget the words. (Even Elvis did, on occasion)


Peace, music & snow!!!
