The Roches ‘We Three Kings’.
Just in time to ruin your holidays a fartastical yuletide giveaway: The Roches ‘We Three Kings’ cd. I don’t know what gifts these three Kings brought the Roches but it appears to have been kimchi, turnip and cauliflower casserole and warm BPR. Maggi, Terre and Suzy released some notable cds but this windy offering can’t be included in their number. Troll the ancient yuletide carols indeed. Do you hear what I hear? Speed this recording up just a smidge and you’d have Alvin and the chipmunks. Do you recall a way, way too excited Eydie Gorme on Sleigh Ride? The Roches easily best her here in uncorked fartiness. Inexplicably, ‘Deck the Halls’ takes on a mariachi beat and sounds like someone suffering from paracusia while recovering from a tequila bender/acid trip hangover (not that I would know what that would feel like).
Apparently other Roche fans have a far greater appreciation for this stinkeroo than I and such may be the case for the unlucky weiner/loser who wins this. In fact one AC member actually rates it as his favorite Christmas recording so go figure. Roll over Dean-O, Nat, Ella, Dinah and der Bingle. Roll over. Wise Men would best advised to look elsewhere because that’s the way the old gas passeth.
Now, as a truly selfless service to the AC community, I decided to sit for one more listening session braced by some stiff dutch courage. When I regained consciousness 7 hours later I found myself on the roof half stuck in the chimney wearing festive red and green boxer shorts, scuba fins and my ‘I Don’t Care, Do Yule?’ jacket. Forewarned weiner/losers is forewarned!
Contest rules are as per usual. Pick a number between 1 - 58. A random number will be generated on 12/16 and the cd mailed post haste to the weiner/looser in plenty of time to have it ruin their holidays. CONUS only please. Residents of DoomTown, Desolation Row and the Tricolor area are ineligible to play. Offer void after midnight in Sectors 5 & 6.
Worst of luck to everyone.
