Christmas In July 2008-Redux

Another installment in the updated Christmas In July Best-Of series. We're up to 2008 already, so this is going pretty quickly. In case you missed the others, this is a re-release of the same compilation I've been sharing since 2009, though it contains tracks from the 2008 season. I just went through to see if I'd shared out better versions of some of the tracks, and in many cases, I was able to drop in a better rip than what I originally shared. (There's a text file in the download that details exactly what I updated.) So if you enjoyed it the first time around, it sounds a little better now. And if it's new to you, then get to downloading because there's some good music in here. This is The Best From Ernie (Not Bert)'s Christmas In July 2008-Because It's Hot Our There. Enjoy!

  1. Honestly, I can't keep all these things straight. You have your daily posts, plus the best-of posts, plus the second-best-of posts - is that right? And you are replacing some items with better quality materials?

  2. I think I'm overcompensating for something but I'm not sure what... :)

    There are the new shares.
    There are the updated Best-of posts.
    There are the Second-best collections, which are new comps of old material.

    And I'm probably going to start sprinkling in some links to old Christmas in July days that are still active, for folks that missed it the first time around. I think there are still 4 or 5 years of those that are available for download.

    Quantity has a quality all it's own, right? :)

    When did Captcha bring back the "Select all the pictures with a bus" exercise? Haven't seen that in a while, but here it is just in time for July.

  3. I never get Captchas with your stuff. Blogger likes me the best.
