I can't believe it's already December. Here's a funny Christmas record I picked up for .99¢ at a sidewalk sale back in the springtime. I still haven't replaced my stolen camera, so I decided to try taking these pictures with the camera on my cell phone. Aside from sticking my thumb in the photo above, they turned out okay—a sort of blurry, over-saturated set of holiday memories recalled through a haze of rummy eggnog. I can't find much info about Doug Setterberg, but Stan Boreson was born and raised in Everett, WA—just up the street from where I live—and he continues to entertain people in the Seattle area and throughout North America with his humorous Scandinavian-themed tunes. You can read more about this delightful yokester here and find a biography and more songs on the Stan Boreson website here.
