Experience Christmas

Here's something for you that's a bit out of left field, especially for this blog.  I flipped to this record in my collection and thought it was a budget collection of random tracks on a no-name label, but then I flipped back and picked it up.  I'd not heard of any Christmas music from The Gap Band, so I looked it up online and found that it was a sampler for the Total Experience label, home of The Gap Band, Yarbrough & People and a few others in the early 80's.  Far as I can tell, it's not been reissued, until now.  Get your groove on with A Total Experience Christmas (Total Experience TEL8-5707, Stereo, 1984).

1. The Gap Band-This Christmas
2. The Gap Band-The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)
3. Jonah Ellis-Christmas Won't Be Christmas Without My Baby
4. Yarbrough & Peoples-Christmas Dreams
5. Prime Time-All I Need For Christmas Is Your Love
6. Pennye Ford & Oliver Scott-Silent Night
7. Goodie-Please Come Home For Christmas
8. The Gap Band-I Miss You Most Of All At Christmas
9. Oliver Scott-Joy To The World

  3. Wow! Not a big Gap Band fan, but I don't imagine most fans of theirs even know about it. I'll check it out anyway. Why not?

  5. It doesn't seem to be an especially popular share... Not my audience, I guess.

    1. You landed on an oldie here. Stay tuned, I think there's a 12" single pulled from this LP coming up soon. ;)
