Figured I'd just type this up while the turkey is cooking...

I had a fun two and a half hours last night spinning Christmas tunes new and
old over the air. (It had been almost a year since I'd last DJ'ed, ah how I
miss it...) Among the callers were one (maybe two?) listmembers who made a
few requests.

So here's the playlist. Anyone wanting a copy mail me, and I'll dub a
110-minute (edited) version onto tape for the cost of tape/postage.

BTW, I must admit there was a decent amount of overlap from last year's
show, mainly because I had a limited number of records to work with. All my
LPs and most of my CDs are still packed away, so it was a largely 7" singles
show.
