I dug out my old Christmas CD last evening ... took a bottle of Sailor Jerry and a quart of pineapple juice down to my dungeon ...

And gave it my annual "listenin' " ...

Best thing I will probably ever do ... so if you are so inclined ... give it a "spin" ...

Ones I used to Know

I hope someone out there gets some enjoyment out of it ... my "Karma" account could sure use some bolsterin' $:\$

Happy Holidays, y'all ...

Rick,
I know it's been a tough year, but Merry Christmas to you, Chris and the kids, and keep your chin up for the New Year.

Thanks for posting "The Ones I Used To Know". As much as I loathe Christmas songs by now, I'm happy to hear these.

Hey Rick, that's some bee-yootiful Yuletide tunage!
I see it was recorded just down the street from here . .

Dude, who's the clean-cut lookin' guy in the U. of Miami sweatshirt?

Thanks for putting out those Christmas tunes again! My favorite recorded Aiello....

Warm holiday wishes to you & Chris & the littl'uns.

(My big'uns have started to report in from the Left Coast.

)

I'll be droppin' in with a growler real soon...

Merry Christmas Rick to you and your beautiful family, and thanks for the holiday tunes...I may have to rip off a few more of those licks.

Merry Christmas and a happy healthy New Year to you and your family Rick.

Hugs and kisses to Chris and the kids.

Thanx for sharing Rick

Merry Christmas to you & your family

Nice, Rick! I'm listening to 'What Child is This' at the moment...nice harmonics...clear as a bell!

I'm also wondering who the guy is in the U of M sweatshirt...

Oh I think you have many more great tunes left in you. Once all them young-uns get grow'd up and get fiddles, mando's, and ukes you all will have a swell Christmas music celebration.

You can call it the Mele Aiellokimaka Christmas band. Have a very Merry Christmas.
aloha.

Thanks for all the kind words, y'all.

Rick A. ... yep, right there on South Park Rd ... how appropriate

Chrissy was doing a Sub-I in Neurosurgery at Jackson ... and basically she was never at home for a two month stretch ...

So I tried to do something constructive ...

Jeff S. ... it is terrible how time ... and having 4 babies ... can reek havoc on one's physique $:\$

Anyway ...

From my family to all of y'all ...

Christmas '02 ( Chrissy, baby Emmie and Ellie)

And yesterday (Dusty, Ellie, Tucker & Emmie)

Happy Holidays
