Star of Wonder, Star of Night

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Blessed Solstice
...and all the rest of it, gang!

Through sheer serendipity this turned up on YouTube and I had to post here it here.  Loads of twinkling lights, Christmas trees, the CTA's famous Holiday Train and fireworks in December -- what more could you ask for? Enjoy this one minute of laptop or armchair travel to our fine Windy City.



This year for my Christmas music video I decided to introduce you to one of my favorite alternative bands, one you've probably never heard of: Gandalf Murphy and the Slambovian Circus of Dreams. Here's their brand new Christmas song "Every Little Light"



Whoever or whatever you believe in, however you celebrate this end of the year, have a memorable and magical time. Make the most of it you wonderful people out there in the dark. Looking forward to more literary Lost in Limbo discoveries and sharing them with you in 2015.

    2. Some day I'd like to see them live. But they tend to stick to the East Coast where they have a HUGE fan base. Such amazing and affable people in addition to making fantastic music.
