Here's a whole bunch of music to get the guests riled up at the your Xmas joint, yo. All told, the songs and mixes below equal 10+ hours of ignoring the turntable. Not that I'm a supporter of ignoring the turntable. These will just free you up to park your ass under the mistletoe.
The bulk of the material below is from Spread the Good Word, who's host, the Rev Tom Frost, is a pretty mean musician himself. It's a go-to blog for vintage rock n' roll and stuff the Cramps would have have listened to. His mixes are legend amongst lazy party hosts. A bunch more down there are from Big Rock Candy Mountain, a country and western, blues and roots music blog. Besides his mixes, he always has individual holiday songs, posted liberally all through December. I'm a newcomer to Decibel Tolls, but any mix with the Sonics, Can and Lee Perry is A-OK in my book. I may post more, but there's more than enough to keep you busy and out of the spouse's hair.
