What the Fontaine?!WTF: Christmas tunes & non-Christmas tunes…and R.I.P. Joy Seward

"What the Fontaine?!: You never know what you'll hear next on this fun mix of tunes from across the decades and musical genres."

It's Christmas Eve, so I'll play some Christmas tunes & some non-Christmas tunes.  Please bear with my sore thoat and my sadness at the loss of VCU artist and friend Joy Seward. (Obit here.)
