The 1999 Thanksgiving Day Parade on CBS, re-articulated for your listening pleasure.
Yes, it is a rerun, and very much an oldie. I took it off the site when it was included in one of the sets on Bandcamp. Why is it here today? Well...
One idea I have for this site is soundtracks for annual holiday parades. The idea is, you folks at home play it while watching the parade, and maybe some crazy synchronicity will occur-- some overwhelmingly appropriate and silly collision of image and sound. My gift to you. Ya never know.
So, why is it just this one short little bit? Because (1) I didn't give myself enough time to mobilize the concept this year, and (2) no one else sounded anywhere as silly as these two.

The potential silliness of parade commentary is actually pretty high, but it depends on the hosts; of course there's the natural reluctance to be a goofball on national TV. But these two hardy souls were up to the task, and I applaud them. We know and love and eat!
