Just in time for Black Friday - “GOD REST YE MERRY BONZO”

So, tomorrow is Black Friday, the most insanely busy shopping day of the year. It’s also the day, historically, that the festivity-industrial complex rolls out the cheezy xmas decorations and music to get you in the mood to celebrate the birth of Our Savior by selling you lead-tainted plastic crap and amazingly realistic first-person shooter video games.
My sanctified offering is this song “GOD REST YE MERRY BONZO”. It’s sort of perverted xmas music…. me doing the classic xmas tune “God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman” over a loop of a drum beat by John “Bonzo” Bonham, from Led Zeppelin.
I sang, played bass, sleigh bells and piano. My friend George Earth played guitar (he recorded it for me over the Internet.)
Dig it, share it, use it, love it. And pass it on.

P/s….there’s something about this Stephen Colbert performance:

that somehow inspired my Bonzo song.
