Xmas Don't Be 2K&L8



It's December 9th, which means that I'm at least a week late with my 2009 Christmas Compilation, but with my vacation and post-vacation catchup, I lost track of the date. But do not fret, because the compilation is ready for download now!

With the late date, I decided to call it "Xmas Don't Be 2K&L8", which translates in longhand to "Christmas Don't Be Two Thousand & Late" -- at the intersection where Alvin & the Chipmunks meet the Blackeyed Peas. Thirty tracks, plus one extra one, mostly rockers about the guy in the red suit. Here's the track listing.

31 Bonus Track is the overplayed Jesus Christ by Big Star

Touchè
Actually I meant the song is fatigued, not this version, which is superior.

Thanks, Steve. I look forward to your xmix every year and am especially digging "Jingle Jane"
