Tanto Makeul (the crazy man who put out songs like, "I've Got to Spend More Money," and "I'm Afraid that My Life Would Still Suck") has just put out a great Xmas song, and it features a didgerido. You can hear it at the beginning of the song, and it supplements the bass line all the way through.

It's available through Amazon, or you can also stream it from www.lala.com (in both cases type in keywords "tanto makeul"). It should be coming up on Napster and Itunes any day.

I helped out with the engineering on this song, and I can tell you that I'm really impressed. I took home a copy and my kids won't stop singing the derned thing. Tanto says he's going to do a video if he can get the financing. He also plans to put up a sound clip from the beginning so people can hear the didge better. That will be on his website, www.tantomakeul.com, which should be active in a couple of days. -Bill C.
