All-Time Great Little Saint Nick Covered by Fendertones

I just got this clip in from Fred Vail (who knows a thing or two about the music of The Beach Boys! lol) What a GREAT performance of this Beach Boys Christmas Classic ... we've watched it several times now. You can check it out here:
Click here: YouTube - The Fendertones - Little Saint Nick

The #3 Christmas record of 1963, "Little Saint Nick" ranks right up there with "Jingle Bell Rock, "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," "Blue Christmas" and a few select others, as one of the best seasonal records of all-time.
Well, it may take 20 or so "Fendertones" to do what I heard 'the five boys' do 'live' on December 21, 1963 -- the night we recorded the "Beach Boys Concert" album -- but these guys are fabulous just the same. If any of your readers want more of the same, go to YouTube.com and put in "The Feertones." They have equally impressive versions of "California Girls," "God Only Knows," "Good Vibrations," "Let Him Run Wild" and at least a half dozen more.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Kent, and to all my fellow appreciative readers of "Forgotten Hits."

Same to you, Fred ... and this is a GREAT video ... we've watched it again and again and again! Thanks so much for sharing this with our readers! (kk)

Fred ALSO told me about an exciting Beach Boys / eBay auction (that ended last night) ... QUITE a collection ... and it went for a damn good price, too. When all was said and done, these LPs went for a little over $4.00 a piece!!! And there are some REAL Collectors Items in this batch! (Scroll down for complete information ... the auction has already ended) kk

This auction closes in about two hours. By fate I stumbled on it and wrote the seller a note. His passion for our band started with "Beach Boys Concert." Read his description and reason for parting with his collection -- you're going to be touched by his story.
PLEASE send this link on to your fellow BB collectors and fans. I hope his lifelong collection ends up in the hands of a fellow BB fan. It deserves to find another great home.
Hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas. Here's to a super healthy, prosperous and successful 2010!
Fred
