GA Russell Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Dan Hicks released a Christmas album last year called Crazy for Christmas, and I picked it up this year. No surprises if you have already made up your mind about Dan Hicks. I like him a lot. It's great to hear Christmas given the Hicksville spin. Quote

Dave James Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Absolutely love Dan Hicks. Especially the early version with the Hot Licks, Naomi Ruth Eisenberg and Maryann Price. Quote
paul secor Posted December 10, 2011 Report Posted December 10, 2011 Another long time Dan Hicks fan here - 40 years or so. I have a version of "Somebody Stole My Santa Claus Suit" on a Rhino anthology - Bummed Out Christmas from the late 80's. Didn't know that he'd released a Christmas album. Thanks for letting me know.

GA Russell Posted December 10, 2011 Author Report Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) I once saw Maryann Price, her husband (or boy friend) John whatever, Symphony Sid Page and a fourth person appear on The Gong Show. Everyone behaved as if they were nobodies, without making any mention of the Hot Licks. They were, as you can imagine, by far the best act on the show. Edited December 10, 2011 by GA Russell Quote
