News for 2011:

A couple things brewing for 2011.  First, DavesWorld56 acquired a reel-to-reel version of "The Glory of Christmas", which I had shared out here.  He transferred it to digital, but discovered that a few songs were missing from the reel format.  I'll be working on re-mastering the missing cuts from my vinyl version (hopefully eliminating the nasty skip from "Patapan") and integrating my re-masters in with Dave's great reel rips.  So sometime in 2011 you'll get a cleaner re-share of this excellent collection.  Here's the link to Dave's work so (via FaLaLaLaLa.com Forum):  Glory of Christmas  Thanks Dave!

Second, I have a couple more editions of the Hallmark collections.  Since I live in Kansas City, home of Hallmark, these pop up pretty often out in thrift store land.  I'll probably re-master the two from 2010 and then share out all four in 2011.  Or more if I find others.

Cheers!
