Chewie the Rookie Wookie: "Xeni Jardin:

BB reader Isaac says,

'Remember the days before George Lucas so tightly controlled the Star Wars franchise? The days when there could be a Star Wars Christmas Special on TV? Cleaning out my garage, I found an old 45 RPM record from 1977: The Rebel Force Band, performing 'Chewie the Rookie Wookie' (sort of Motown) and 'May the Force Be With You' (imagine a lounge singer doing a version of 'Sunrise, Sunset' - that's what it sounds like). Of course, nowadays something like this would never get off the ground; it's just not as sophisticated as Ewoks, Jar Jar Binks, or that Jake kid.'
