A 2012 Christmas Gift To You!

Something has been missing... I couldn't figure
it out at first but I was thinking about a yearly
tradition that I had abandoned this year and things just didn't feel right.  So, with love in my heart and the intention to provide some Christmas joy for the multitude of people who have expressed their love and appreciation for the Christmas Mixes over the years, I have put together another one.  

Now don't expect to be hearing 25 brand spanking new tracks because I made it clear last year that I had exhausted my efforts to find more Jamaican Christmas music for additional mixes so what I did is the next best thing... I have taken 20 of my favorite Christmas 7" records, mixed them together and threw a bow on it and there you have it... Seven Inches Of Christmas Joy... yeah, I know it sounds a little risque but I promise you nothing inappropriate, it's only the title.  

During the holiday season you hear these horror stories of someone's Aunt Edna repackaging the gift you gave her last year and someone getting their feelings hurt, etc. but this repackaged gift from me to you is shame-free and an hour of unadulterated Jamaican Christmas fun!

I'll post the mix tomorrow, I've got a bunch of things to get done before work today and I'm running out of time... stay tuned!!
