Are you board with the same Christmas records year in year out? Wizzard and Slade boring you sick of the fairytale of New York? Do listen to music with an open mind and open soul?
What you need is Vipers latest collection of Christmas cheer dating back to the early days for recorded music, this collection brings you both types of music Country AND Western as well as Folk and Jazz, with a holiday feel only a depression can bring. Marvel at the `Cotton Top Mountain Sanctified Singers' singing `Christ was born on Christmas day' a day without tinsel but with plenty of goodwill and cheer. For the more traditional there are three versions of `Jingle bells' same song but you would hardly believe it they feel and sound so different. So enjoy Christmas as it should be with tunes from the 20s to the 50s before Cocoa Cola brought you the jolly commercial Santa.
Also recommended `Papa aint no Santa Claus Mama aint no Christmas tree'

This is simply a great collection of really off-the-wall seasonal blues, bluegrass, gospel etc. etc. singles from the 30's 40's and 50's. Play it a couple of times and the current recorded-by-rote stuff sounds tired, jaded and distictly unappealing. As an MP3 it is a bargain. Buy it, play it, and blow raspberries at what passes as Cristmas music now.
It has a companion album, "Papa Ain't No Santa Clause, Mama Ain't No Christmas Tree", the two together could make Christmas fun for anybody.

Jingle Bells instro style and next up is a Mambo Xmas body rubber. Ths beats the brass bells out of the usual Xmas schmuck and plasters a wide smile across a cracked visage. Brings back the snow, orange in the stocking and wide open log fire as the snow pelts the windowpane. Baby it's cold outside.
American classics culled from the vaults of yesteryear 1920's to the 1950's. The types of sounds that will never appear in River Island, Gap, Next and Marks and Spencers in a decade, as they pile up the tack for the credit card. Corporate Xmas loves Wizard, Slade and John Lennon, all from the 70's, tunes pulling at the heart strings of the poor deprived 70's kids, now replete with loadsamoney to part with. All trapped in a mid 40's-50's recompense for missing out back in the "good old days."
These songs evoke the reek of damp poverty, filled with a fine grit that pours into a sauce of determination and cheer, a battle with real adversity. Many of them are black artists, who create a different aura. There was no money to bring home presents for the kids and this is brimming with relgious effluva, that now appears quaint rather than oppressive, as time pulls us all away from when men in frocks could dictate family movements. It swings, croons and then beats out its rhythm stick and then finally cries into its glass half empty, whilst brimming with kitsch.
Place gently in the tray, and press play, then this will shift the mood of the room, creating that happy smooth ambience. This is as slick as syrup and fruitier than Auntie on the Baileys.
