| Ghosts Of Christmas Past: David Bowie & Bing Crosby |
While writing about The Holiday Season this year one of my most interesting and favorite Ghosts of Christmas Past memories kept haunting me...
As a youngster I remember watching one of Bing Crosby's Holiday Specials with my parents, when what to my wandering eyes did appear but David Bowie to sing "Little Drummer Boy" with Bing this year.
Even as a kid I was a little taken aback as I was keenly aware of Bowie's reputation as a Rock-N-Roll raconteur and Crosby's as the picture of family wholesomeness.
But this was pure magic to me and truly formed an aesthetic that would be part of the basis of who I became in my adult life.
Of course guess who I became a fan of and guess who stayed my parents singer?
Here is one of the greatest most influential moments in Entertainment history, not to mention my young life.
"Come they told me
Pa rum pum pum pum"....
