No doubt I am not the only one who has arrived here from a link on the page of this radio show in the Canadian city of Vancouver. The song was run on the Chri$tma$ Eve show, and you can hear the 17½ minute show in Real Audio by clicking the appropriate link for whatever day you wish to hear.

This tune is what my Father always calls ‘an important record’. This typically means that it provides an opposing view to what is commonly thought of as ‘normal thought’, and does so in a way which not only points out flaws in the status quo, but also provides the listener to sufficient material to think for themselves. To merely suggest that its playing during the holidays ‘is welcomed’ would hardly cover the almost legislated requirement of it being blasted in the house at least twice during Christmas Day, and preferably in a room full of people listening in monk-like devotional attention. As a result of this, I have most of the words committed to memory, and can regale people with much of the recording at the drop of a hat should no stereo be available and I don’t have the song with me. One isn’t proud of this, it’s just something that is true.

The text of your article is being thrown in a layout, along with the images. It shall be printed and put in the box my wife and I pull out of the attic at the start of December, and then thrust into the hands of anyone who says — after having the recording stuffed into their ear-holes — ‘so, what’s the big deal about that, then?’ Education about The Man, and the vigilance with which he must be kept in check, is ‘an important thing’.

Blame my Father. I certainly do.
