Pachelbel’s Chicken
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
I want the recipe foe whatever he’s smoking
A fowl rendition of a great work.
I suggest being “very baked” or “fried” for that one . . . ;-)
Bob, I sincerely appreciate your continual reminders to not neglect some of the finer cultural elements available to us.
Actually, I admire your bravery in posting this video. I’m glad that you didn’t chicken out.
I had an uneasy feeling before I clicked the button but I thought, “Well, Bob did send it our way”. And now Bob owes us one.
Apparently only one of numerous works by a pair of Australian concert violinists now in Finland on their world tour

One reviewer describes their ouvre as “lunatic genius”
BTW, have you ever seen an military band perform Pachelbel’s Cannon ?
For time reasons, I don’t usually click on the music videos, but as someone who keeps chickens (backyard flock), and is a musician, this one hit a sweet (or at least a silly) spot. Thanks.

… I… uh.. I got nothin’.

A reminder that life should not be serious everyday! Thank you!
Try Big Marvel, a South Korean (I think) who plays cover songs on the most difficult of all instruments, the rubber chicken, as well.
His cover of Havana means you will never hear that song, without hearing the chickens voice!

It really is funny.
Q: Does the same chicken sing all of the parts or are there four chickens?
Q: Does the same chicken sing all of the parts
Parts are parts.
Chickens don’t sing.
The puppet master does.
Loved it anyway.
Now for the ducks and 1812 ? ….
