Originally released December 2024.

Happy Holidays to you all from Hayley and BVK! On this, "A Very Special Episode" of Source Pages, Brian plays for you one of his most played Christmas albums of all-time: "Christmas In the Stars: Star Wars Christmas Album", released in 1980 by the artist Meco, who had hits with the "Star Wars Theme/ Cantina Band" dance version and also "Ewok Celebration". Anthony Daniels, who IS C-3PO narrates and sings, as well as the very first appearance by a future Rock and Roll Hall of Famer on track 5. For some reason, this album was pulled from streaming services this year, so here it is in its entirety. Enjoy!
