Winter Wonderland

I haven’t lived where it snowed since 1968. Even in Japan I was too close to Tokyo Bay for snow to stick even if it fell, and I don’t remember it doing so in the two winters I spent there. I still remember the incredible silence of a snowfall, though.

Cindy Combs plays a slack key guitar instrumental version of “Winter Wonderland.” It comes from a compilation album called “A Slack Key Christmas,” released in 2000 on Dancing Cat Records. While Christmas shopping on Monday I found a copy of the album at a used book/music/dvd store and added it to my Christmas music collection (53 albums containing 625 songs and rising!).
