Christmas In The Motor City 5

Getting kinda late, but I've got one more record from Detroit to share with you. This time it's a remaster of something I've shared with you for many years now, starting in 2010. It's a great collection of local civic groups including some big names, like Ford, GM and Detroit Edison. Lots of local schools involved, too. Pretty sure we've had visitors stop by and say they went to some of these schools, and that's always cool when you can make that connection. As I mentioned, this is a remaster. I dug out the LP, re-recorded it using my latest tools, scanned the images again and put it all together into a new package for 2023.  This is Christmas In Detroit-A Collection Of Seasonal Music By Outstanding Detroit Choral Groups (Special Recordings for The Tuberculosis And Health Society XCTV 87787/87788, Mono, 1962). Enjoy!
