Vibes

Starting a short series here of these LPs on Power Pak that focus on different instruments. Each one of them features very similar titles and I strongly suspect they were all recorded in the same session, then mixed to highlight the instrument being featured. I'm just making a few assumptions here, but they seem too similar to be a coincidence. This one features the vibraphone or if you prefer, the xylophone. I think I much prefer Xylophone because there aren't enough words out there that start with the letter X. This entry is Don Tweedy-Christmas Vibes (Power Pak PO 231, Stereo, 1973).

1. White Christmas
2. Winter Wonderland
3. Blue Christmas
4. Christmas Song
5. Little Drummer Boy
6. O' Little Town Of Bethlehem
7. Silver Bells
8. Silent Night
9. Christmas In My Home Town
10. Jingle Bell Rock
11. Here Comes Santa Claus
12. Rock Around The Christmas Tree

    1. I feel like I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel by sharing them, but I've always been down in this same barrel...

  5. Well for me, this was an enjoyable album. It keeps you entertained when I am out and about. I just hope I am hearing everything and not missing anything.
    I noticed the other two have the same track listings. I hope they at least offer different interpretations of these tracks?

    1. I think all the albums in this series have identical track listings. We need to compare the tracks across records to see if they are the same basic track with different instruments highlighted each time. That's the working hypothesis.
