Christmas Tradition
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVYCudlVMSM

No sense in breaking my Christmas Tradition.

Every generation has their heroes.

When they pass, we compare them with the newcomers. And they come up short.

The Beatles. Muhammad Ali. Ronald Reagan

For Dad, it was Al Jolson. Joe Louis. Cal Coolidge.

But my father knew music.

Kid, he told me, here's the deal:

Caruso - Power

Gigli - Passion

Bjoerling - Perfection

I acknowledge his wisdom...

Merry Christmas

Thanks for posting the link. Just like Caruso you have to wonder what he would sound like with modern recording equipment (as that was probably late 40's - 50's).

Merry Christmas!
