I guess my
share of a small red 7" for Christmas-And-A-Half was a little bit chintzy. I mean, there must be hundreds, if not thousands, of small blogs like this one, sharing out all sorts of great Christmas music on this halfway point between one Christmas and the next. So I wanted to bring you a little something more. How about a slightly larger red 10" record? Problem is, this one is a bit of a mystery. I found it in a small church-run thrift shop in Gibsonton, a small circus town maybe 45 minutes north of my house. All I found was the vinyl. There was no sleeve, no artist name, no tracklisting, nothing but a piece of red vinyl. But it turned out to be some nicely performed, well-recorded, acapella Christmas songs. (Well, I think there's piano on one of them, but most are unaccompanied.) Thirteen of the fifteen tracks are the usual suspects, but there were two songs on here I'd not heard before. One of them appears to be a round that dates back a few years but isn't usually related to Christmas. The other one, I have no idea, but it's nice. If anybody can put a name to these artists, I'd appreciate it. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. This is
Voices Of Christmas (No Number, 10" 33RPM Red Vinyl, Mono).
