Continuing on with our Christmas Party, a once rare old 45 RPM single by the Rolling Stones' Keith Richards from 1978.

Once again, it's that strange time between the deaths of George Harrison, November 29, 2001 and John Lennon, December 8, 1980- two former Beatles.
Without The Beatles, I don’t love Music like I do- simple as that!
So the loss of any of the Fab…

It's Taking It To The Streets, and I'll accept Boulevard.

It's the 9th Inning, the Finale to the Series, and I am expecting a Walk-Off Home Run!
