As you may have noticed, we are trying to catch up, posting as much shows as we can, but christmas is faster than us and is just behind the corner. As a matter of fact, I'll spend the coming week in my family "retreat", a place which is internet-free and tv-free. That means I won't be able to post the remaining December shows, including the one dedicated to christmas before christmas actually takes place. As a compensation, here are some christmas gifts courtesy of the blogosphere (and especially three great bloggers : Derek See, The Stepfather Of Soul and Action Pat) :
First, here's a bunch (actually 60) videos of tremendous records provided by the mighty Derek See through his YouTube channel (be prepare for a real treat) :

Here are Sonny & Cher performing their greatest hit
"I Got You Babe" followed by a rendition of "It's Gonna Rain"
The performance is quite unusual, I mean their gestures,
their moves, definitely not common during the 60's
He is undoubtlessly a great artist, but the face of Sonny Bono
always seemed strange to me and look at the pants of Cher!
Where did she get those?!
By the way, that's a nice hat...
Well, the caption says it all : three great men with Elvis!
