From the
2011 archives, this is a set of nice Tijuana Brass-style Christmas music that I'm told has been released under a lot of different names over the years. On this particular record, there really wasn't an artist name, so I split the title in half and came up with Tijuana Style. If you don't agree with that, feel free to put any artist name in there that you like. My version is on the Canadian Arc label who also brought us the
Christmas In A Pub album that I love to roll out each and every year. This one is a little peppier than that one, and it doesn't feature drunk people singing. This is
Tijuana Style-
Christmas Carols (Arc AC 34, Stereo). Oh, keep forgetting to mention it, but this one has been re-encoded for your listening pleasure.
1. The Holly And The Ivy
2. Silent Night
3. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
4. While Shepherds Watched
5. O Little Town Of Bethlehem
6. Good King Wenceslas
7. God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
8. Away In A Manger
9. The First Nowell
10. Christians Awake
11. Once In Royal David's City
12. O Come All Ye Faithful

There is only one budget Christmas Tijuana style album, just as there is only one budget children's Christmas album. Or so I imagine.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeleteNeil-Thanks for the comment. I remember hearing that this was something that made the rounds under different titles. My memory isn't good enough to place a recording I've heard elsewhere, especially something that doesn't have catchy lyrics. :)
