With the holiday season once again upon us, it is more critical than ever that we not only remember America’s heroes – those men and women in uniform who sacrifice, and their families – but that we honor them and thank them in some small way for all they do. These heroes would never ask for anything, but all too often find themselves in need, especially during the holidays. Watersign Creative and the band, Professionals, with the recording of ‘Another Snowy White Christmas’ have endeavored to do just that. This upbeat holiday song will be used to raise money and awareness for our wounded and injured veterans and their families and the families of the fallen by donating a portion of all proceeds to us here at Freedom Is Not Free for further allocation to those in need. Your purchase of this uplifting song will allow a child to enjoy his or her Christmas and will help to honor those who’ve given so much yet ask so little. This Christmas, you have the power to make a difference. They Gave All…Let’s Give Back!Another Snowy White Christmas
—A portion of all proceeds for “Another Snowy White Christmas” will go to Freedom Is Not Free, which benefits wounded and mortally wounded American servicepeople and their families. The song’s publisher, GDL Worldwide Music, will donate 50 percent of all publishing revenue until April 15 2010.—

For better or for worse (probably for worse), Mariah Carey’s ‘Touch My Body’ was all over the radio waves this past year. With lyrics like “if you run your mouth and brag about this secret rendezvous/ I will hunt you down,” the song was scary to say the least. Just imagine Mariah Carey hunting you down. How could this image get even scarier? By replacing Mariah with Aretha Franklin. Enjoy.

Hey everyone,
Make sure to tune in this Sunday to www.sloperadio.com at 6pm to the premiere of Classic Rock Block. I’ll be playing tunes from the Stones, Hendrix, Clapton, and the Beatles of course, along with some lesser-known classic rockers. It’ll also be the first chance to catch My Generation, a segment dedicated to my favorite blokes from across the pond - The Who.
Catch you all Sunday,
CB
