Merry Christmas!

I have a tin ear.  But, even with my inability to really understand music, there are certain artists and songs that speak to me.  John Berry isn't well known outside of those of us who listen to County Music.  He never was a really big star, probably because he came along just at the time when the "Pretty Syndrome" hit Nashville.  But he has a wonderful, pure voice, and his rendition of "O Holy Night" always makes me catch my breath. 

So, may all of my Blogger friends that celebrate Christmas have the very Merriest one possible.  And, those of you that don't, well, you have a great Saturday, too.

Re: free post...I had downloaded a video from my new laptop to use for a new post and when I tested it I found out that the video didn't work, so I deleted it. Of course, now followers are finding this post and not being able to open it. Sorry for this...still don't know how to check if a video works unless you publish it..So if I can get the video to work I'll use it...With all this do have a great Holiday!

Hi Louise..Merry Chrissymas to you also.
OMC we are kindred spirits. I'm a huge country music fan and absolutely love John Berry. No one sings 'O Holy Night' like John. You know about the time he was becoming popular he had bengin polyps removed from his throat and basically had to start all over. For several Decembers he had a Christmas concert in Durham, NC. However, this year Vince Gill and his wife Amy were here this year.
We are all hunkered down waiting for the snow....HA
