Christmas CD by Tommy Turkey has Dr. Demento is eating 'Ham For the Holidays' Lynn Julian, was commissioned by the "Trouble With Turkey" coalition to compose the theme song for their latest campaign. Their spokesperson, Tommy, a ten year old turkey, is trying to educate humans about alternatives to their typical holiday feast, which is HIM. The focal point of the awareness campaign is HAM: it’s juicier for roasting, turkey’s dry. Tommy hopes Julian's theme song, "Ham For The Holidays," will help folks remember this fact. Dr. Demento loves the tune so much he brought international attention to the song when he played it on his Nationally syndicated radio show. This is a tremendous honor, as Julians' indie song was played between big label artists Adam Sandler and Arlo Guthrie. Julian feels so strongly about her conviction that she's made their theme song track #1 on her new Holiday, Novelty CD, "Ham for the Holidays." Please give this song, and international issue oppressing all turkeys, the attention that it deserves by listening and sharing it with friends and family this holiday season. It’s a catchy little number you’re going to love. - 2005-11-18
