J Is For Jamie

If you don't go to one single other blog this season for downloads, be sure you go to WFMU's Beware Of The Blog, and download the promo-only J's With Jamie Christmas tracks. These great tracks from the 60's were recorded for friends and family only, but those records have slipped into the secondary market over the years, and now both records have been collected and shared. There are some great songs on there, and I would rate them as the best Christmas songs you will download for free on the internet this year. Well, perhaps the best this year, and the past two. How's that for a ringing endorsement? Trust me, they are that good. Go get 'em and you'll understand my boundless enthusiasm for this music. I only wish that I had found them and shared them out. I'm going to keep looking for hard copies, but I have a feeling these records may elude me forever.
