Looking For Some
Star Wars Christmas Music? |
Be sure to visit the Music section this holiday season for the
Christmas in the Stars
soundtrack which features 9 tracks! Recorded back in 1980, the album's story
takes place in a droid factory where robots trudge away at building toys year
round for S. Claus. However they don't understand the meaning of Christmas until
C-3PO and R2-D2 show them how to appreciate the holiday spirit. Even Artoo adds
to the season festivities by learning how to whistle the catchy Christmas ditty,
"Sleigh Ride." Later we learn who gets what from their wish list: a scarf for
Luke Skywalker, perfume for Princess Leia and earmuffs for Han Solo. Enjoy!
