Santa Project Tidbits: Hardrock, Coco, and Joe

I have a memory, though fleeting, it is clear as day.  Somers, WI and I'm sitting on my mom's lap as she sings me the chorus to the song Hardrock, Coco, & Joe. 

The song comes from a short Christmas film that aired on Chicago TV for decades.  I never forgot it, and I never will.  I can remember giggling when my Mom tried to duplicate the super-deep tone of the part sung by Joe in the chorus. 

 I eventually saw it myself as part of The Bozo the Clown show.   It's a very old part of TV history, particularly in the midwest and I need to add it here.  Enjoy.

Below the video, enjoy a little history of the clip.
