What have I got for you today? Well, how about this release from
Snuff Garrett, a svengali of the late sixties and early seventies who had his hands in all sorts of pies. This time, that pie just happened Christmas music. There's a small series of these "...For Young Lovers" records, but this is the only one that's ever interested me enough to buy it. If this looks like the sort of thing that might appeal to you, please be my guest and download

Thanks Ernie, I've always wanted to hear this one. Perfect for cozying up by the fire with the wife. Also, great job on the scans as usual!
ReplyDeleteIs it me, or is the caricature of Snuff Garrett creepy? (Clarification: I am not asking if I am creepy.)
ReplyDeleteIs this a new remaster?
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Ernie - I have been wanting to find this to replace the cassette that broke on me. I'm thrilled to have it again, as it's indeed intimate, and definitely a beautiful, clear scan!
ReplyDeleteErnie, I think your jpg files might be corrupted. All but the ones labeled "folder" were unreadable in any program, and my Bitdefender security program said they could be deleted. I found no way to open them or delete them, though my computer says they are there.
ReplyDeleteThe rest was fine. This is the first problem I've had. Perhaps it was Rapidshare.
I meant MediaFire. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I should again say "Thanks Ernie!" for all you do to make Christmas merrier!
Anybody else having an issue with the picture files in this download? If you're the only one, I'd say it's a download problem. I don't see any issues with the files on my end...
ReplyDeleteno issues on my end
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeleteHis lounge albums are usually nice to listen to.
I look forward to hearing it.
Ernie, I did try multiple downloads to see if the issue with the jpg files was a one-time fluke. Sadly, I got the same result every time, although I've had no problems with anything else you've shared. Weird.
ReplyDeleteBut again, thanks for all you do for us at Christmas time!
