Popular Post Robbk Posted November 21, 2013 Popular Post Posted November 21, 2013 "Christmas Time"-by jan Bradley. What could be better than The Chicago sound, written by Curtis Mayfield. The one possible improvement would be having The Impressions or Billy Butler and The 4 Enchanters backing her up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=w5rQH2vfggc 4

Robbk Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) My favourite Christmas song ever(maybe because I'm Jewish): It's WAy too short. I want it to go on and on, and on! Edited November 21, 2013 by RobbK
Robbk Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 This is a nice late '60s Detroit Christmas ballad. Unfortunately I can't convert from my record player to digital:

It's on a curtom special products 45 (I think it's SP-3), it's the impressions wishing you a happy christmas. There's a recording of them singing the song in the background with an overdub of curtis, sam, and fred wishing you a merry christmas. Edited November 22, 2013 by boba 1

I did a radio show featuring all Xmas records once (at Christmas obviously) and people started ringing in to complain saying "why are you playing all this Xmas sh*t, play some rare soul Steve!" 1
