Daddy Rockin' Santa

How's yr tree comin' along?  Stuffed yr stocking yet? 

We had a correction on our last post, and we'd like to thank the person who pointed out our mis-credit.  We'd also like to thank all the kind folks who have sent Xmas tunes and/or suggestions our way.  Y'all have been generous to us, and we'd like to return the favor.

Mixed (Santa's) bag today.  A little more soulful doo-wop inspired Xmas R'n'B from the Sherwoods.  The Cotton Top Mountain Sanctified Singers bring us some some ragtime, jug-bandy, holly roller gospel blues for the season.  And the Queen of All Country, Loretta Lynn, does sad Christmas exactly the way it should be done,  sad but not schmaltzy (there's a reason we worship her).

Santa's got a crazy bag!

Sherwoods: Happy Holiday (mp3)

Cotton Top Mountain Sanctified Singers: Christ Was Born on Christmas Morn (mp3)

Loretta Lynn: Christmas Without Daddy (mp3)

Thanks for stoppin' by.  Have a great Holiday season.  Be good to yourselves, and others as well!

Gimme Santa Gimme

Three days in!!! We've made it thus far...So here's another round of Holiday joy for y'all! Remember, these are daily, and you never know what you're gonna get-Country, Trash, Blues, Garage, Soul, R'n'B, and who the hell can guess what else. Our goal is to make the Holiday season less painful, and provide an alternative to whatever crap you're hearing at the Gap or Starbuck's or whatnot. There are many imitators, but no one beats The Mountain, and that's a guldurned fact (cheeky bastards, aint we?)!

Today's lineup features a sexy little muted go-go number from French chanteuse (and secret Mountain girlfried) Claudine Longet. Following that we've got everyone's favorite Japanese girl-band, Shonen Knife, taking us to a celestial Yuletide. Finally a naughty little ditty about greed and what we will and will not give up for Santa from the Alter Egos.

Going Country again for today's Re-posts (well, hell, that is what we're originally known for...). And how can we go wrong with Pee Wee King, Brenda Lee, and the almighty Loretta Lynn? We can't. So have a ho...down with ol' Saint Nick!

Miss the Mistletoe and You!
