Day 9 - Christmas Boogie - The Davis Sisters

A storming boogie-woogie hep-cat, jive talking version of the ‘Night before Christmas’ complete with great lines including:

"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care /  With everyone hoping they'd be getting their share"

and

"He was chubby and plump, a fat little elf  / `He's been eatin' regular,' I said to myself.' "

The sister’s themselves were two unrelated country singers Skeeter Davis – who had a worldwide solo hit with ‘The End of the World’ - and Betty Jack Davis and you owe it to the pair of them to give this a good listening this festive season.
