Dean Martin - The Christmas Blues

We're going to try our hand with a video Christmas countdown for the next week featuring performers who have made an appearance on Theme Time Radio Hour and Dreamtime.

First of our Christmas Crooners is Dino himself, who sang I Don't Care if the Sun Don't Shine on Episode #1, the Weather show. Dylan remarked in that show that, "we forget how much Elvis wanted to be Dean," an off-hand comment that would eventually inspire the first Dreamtime show. Dean Martin would also be featured in Dreamtime Episode 11 - All Mobbed Up.

Originally released as a 19 and 53 single, The Christmas Blues appears on the Making Spirits Bright CD, and can also be downloaded as an mp3 through Amazon.
