Any Major Country Christmas Vol. 1

December 15th, 2011 Leave a comment Go to comments

Seeing as the History of Country series is proving so popular, let us put on a Santa-red Stetson and have a country Christmas. This lot is old-skool: Ernest Tubb riffs (badly) on his 1941 honky tonk classic, Loretta Lynn socks it to it disagreeable Santa, while Brenda Lee aims to lassoo him, yee-ha. George Jones goes X-Mas twisting, and Buck Jones provides some serious pathos. And if you had to choose one man to sing Little Drummer Boy, it would have to be Johnny Cash, right? Hey, even horrid old Jingle bloody Bells sounds good here!

As ever, the mix is timed to fit on a standard CD-R, and it comes with home-pardnered front and back covers. PW in comments.

Merry Christmas Dude; You know I love your mixes, especially those of the Christmas persuasion. I was just going through my downloads of your mixes and noticed I misplaced this one and it is down at the moment, could you re-up it? Thanks for keeping the mixes going after all this time.

Thanks, Steve. It has been a long ride, hasn’t it?

I was actually looking at my London series the other day and thought I had to make a fourth one. I remember getting discouraged by a negative remark from somebody…
