Three Aces and a Joker
Boneyard Media features an article about Three Aces and a Joker, whose 1960 “Sleigh Bell Rock”/“Booze Party” is one of the greatest rock and roll Christmas singles. Not long after I posted the Three Aces story here (see above link), the Salt Lake Tribune picked it up in 2008 and ran an article on the front page of the Life & Arts section featuring quotes from yours truly. Yes, Utah’s own rock royalty finally made the public record. The SLT article’s not available at their website without registration, but it’s surfaced from time to time at the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
