All The Best From 2024

I've been trying to get to this all month, but here we are on the last day of the month and I still haven't done it. No time like the present, I guess. This is a collection of all the best tracks I shared during Christmas in July back in 2024. It wasn't my biggest or best year, but I think it's a good collection of stuff that you can enjoy listening to once the season rolls around. I threw together a little artwork based on an LP from which I shared a track during this year's Christmas in July, and it was a record from Puerto Rico, so that's the only excuse I have for trying to do it in Spanish. I found it hilarious at the time, but the joke may wear thin pretty fast. I was happy that it still looks a little homemade, like it could have come straight off an album I dug out of the bins at Goodwill. But the music is the most important thing here, so download it and give a listen. This is Lo Mejor de la Navidad en Julio de Ernesto (no Roberto) 2024! (I thought recently that Umberto might be funnier than Roberto, but it was too late to make a change.)
