   How come Frank never recorded an album of Xmas tunes!!  He wuz always crying   
   about not   
   making any $$$$...... why an FZ Xmas album woulda been a best   
   seller!!!

   Little Saint Nick (He Don't Miss No One!)   
   OH! Come All Ye Faithful

   Orchestra , The Fugs, Frank

   downer....buzzkill.   
      
   He always wanted to keep the humor in the music....well.....here wuz

   perfect chance to....an opportunity lost!!!  Shame, shame!
