A King For The King
I'm closing out the night before Christmas with a remaster of an old favorite, again something that was frequently requested by visitors this year. Pete King was a popular behind-the-scenes supplier of...

Just a quick post today to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas! Thank you all for stopping by and making me a tiny part of your holiday. It's raining outside at the moment, and it's expected to do so...

Dolls, Puppets & Toys-Part One
Well, that's it, Christmas has come and gone. You blink and you miss it. Seems like just last week I was on a ferry crossing Lake Como in Italy and now Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas have all...

Dolls, Puppets & Toys-Part Two
I couldn't redo my Heidi record and not do the same thing for good old Tammy, so here she is! Tammy seems to be a doll that's quite similar to Heidi, and the records share some of the same info, but...

Dolls, Puppets & Toys-Part Three
Finally, something new for you today. It's easy to do remasters because I already have the records, but I have to stop sometimes and make sure I have something new to share. We've had a couple of dolls...

Dolls, Puppets & Toys-Part Four
Got a couple more puppets here for you, another remaster from 2012. These two may not look like much, but you might be interested to know that both puppets are voiced by Tammy Faye Bakker herself!...

Dolls, Puppets & Toys-Part Five
Folks of a certain ago will certainly remember the artists on our next record. And I think many folks will recognize them even though they had been off the air for decades before they were born. I...

Dolls, Puppets & Toys-Part Six
Last post in our series of music from dolls and puppets today, and another remaster. Sorry about dumping so many of them into one day but I wanted to have a good solid theme and that's just the way it...

I mentioned way back near the beginning of the season that I had a pile of these Spanish-language Christmas records to share out, and I've given you a few of them here and there throughout the season,...

Next up on today's tour of Christmas songs in Spanish is this curious record from Brooklyn. I assume that it was targeted towards Spanish speakers of Puerto Rican descent living in NYC at the time, but...

This next record takes us to Costa Rica, or at least that's where the record is from. Not sure if that's where the group of young singers on the record is from. Spending a little time on Discogs, I see...

So, this probably doesn't count as a Spanish-language release since I believe it's all instrumental. But I didn't listen to it all that closely and they may have snuck something in on me when I wasn't...

Time to dive back into the wonderful world of Spanish-language Christmas albums with this interesting record from who-knows-where. There aren't a lot of details here to work with. Discogs says...

Time for a little various artist action in our Spanish speaking extravaganza today. Having tracks from different artists can help to give a more varied listening experience, I think, and I find that I...

Time to bring this multi-cultural Christmas extravaganza to a close with one last various artists record. Took me a while to figure out what was going on here, but I think I finally got it. All the...

Ski Season 1
Christmas is over now, so I want to push out a couple of remasters that are winter-related but certainly not Christmas. This first one is part of a long, long series of folk-comedy records that Oscar...

Ski Season 2
As promised, I have another non-Christmas album for the snow skiers out there. I mention that it's for snow skiing since I live in Florida and if you say skiing to someone here, they assume you mean...

Ski Season 3
The third and last of the skiing related remasters of the day (didn't I say earlier there were only two? What do I know?) is this set of songs featuring two different groups. I suspect that one of the...

Gospel After Christmastime
How about something today that isn't a remaster? Something brand new, or at least brand new to the blog? I've got this gospel record that I think you'll enjoy. It's a good label sampler with a bunch of...
