Robot Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies. The only thing that would make it better is if they had used "Sugar Rum Cherry" (the Duke Ellington arrangement of same). Speaking of which, I just found out that Ellington arranged the entire Nutcracker, not just the Sugar Plum Fairies which we have on one of the Ultra-Lounge Christmas Cocktails comps. I haven't been able to track down the whole thing but I did find a CD with most of it. Which I will be buying in time for next year's Xmasville Lounge.
Thanks to Making Light for the link above. Merry Christmas everybody!
