Whee!

I was digging through the stacks recently and noticed that I had a lot of Christmas records by various junior high, high school, college and church choirs, and many of them featured the same covers. You've probably seen these things, they were pressed by a company called Delta, and you got to choose your cover from a selection of stock images, thus saving on pressing costs. Then you sold copies door to door to raise money for the group. It occurred to me that I could save a lot of time this year if I recorded a bunch of those and shared them with you. That way I wouldn't have to scan in all of the album covers for each individual release, I could just scan one of each different type. So out of the hundreds I was able to pull together in the collection, I recorded a big pile of them and hope to spend most of the season sharing that great amateur music with you. This is the first of many to come, Wheeling High School Concert Choir-O Holy Night (Delta DRS 69 673, Stereo, 1969). Enjoy!
