Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 4), by Thomas A. Christie. In this section: "The Official Father Christmas Game" by Alternative Software (1989). Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers — sometimes he appeared on them, too. This book delves into the Spectrum’s extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous. "A Very Spectrum Christmas" is Copyright ©2021 Thomas A. Christie, all rights reserved, and is published by Extremis Publishing Ltd. This title is available as a physical book from www.extremispublishing.com and all good online retailers and independent booksellers worldwide.

David Strong - Funk Alto Sax Solo
Sax setup is Selmer Mark VI with a Meyer 7m mouthpiece. Overall, it's not perfect (I recorded this in one take just to check the quality), but it syncs really well, and is a good way to overcome the somewhat average microphone in the Sony camera.
