Last night's show was just as fun as the week before - and though I didn't get as many phone calls as I did for the first Christmas show, the calls I got were wonderful - sounds like you guys really like the tunes I pulled out. This archive will be up for the next week, so hopefully you'll use it to soundtrack a part of your holiday weekend. Go ahead:
Stream the December 21 edition of Out the Other
And since I played a lot of music that's hard to track down or out of print (plus since Christmas is in three days and I'm feeling extra cheery), I decided to load this post with mp3s from last night's show. I've also linked to albums where you can find most of these songs, in case you want to spend your xmas money on next year's holiday music!
