N&G Secret Santa

I have 3 new records for my Santee. Got a forth which might not be the best condition. Don’t know if I should throw it in or if my Santee will think ‘Look what this asshole sent me. That’s Christmas ruined.’

Resulting in them turning into an Ebenezer Scrooge style anti-holiday grouch who hates the season in which case I will have to appear to them as a chain covered ghost linked to 12” records, boxsets and Internet forums, warning them about adding a second hand record as an add on to 3 new albums.

If I’m weighing up these dilemmas god help whoever got allocated me.

It’ll be grand, the only way you could ruin Christmas is by not including Christmas in the Heart.

If you don’t get a copy this Christmas it will hurt you Joe. It will hurt you bad.

Even worse than VMP hurt you. They hurt you bad.
 
So my santee has a couple records on their way to him/her. I went through his/her discogs and picked an album I am familiar with, and one that I wasnt. Hopefully they like them. I did end up using evil amazon but as a plus I used the 'gift' option to write a note letting them know its from their N&G Secret Santa (I didnt say it was me)!
 
Joe doesn’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing he needs
He doesn’t care about catching up with me
Collecting Bob’s discography
He just wants one album to own
More than you can ever know
Make Joe’s wish come true
All Joe wants for Christmas is CHRISTMAS IN THE HEART BY BOB DYLAN
 
Last Christmas I gave you Christmas in the Heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me from tears I’ll give it to someone special...

And there won’t be Dylan seasonal records in Dublin this Christmastime
The greatest gift Joe will get this year is a MOFI
Of Blood On The Tracks you know
He mustn’t be short of dough
Does Joe know it’s Christmastime at all?
 
If Joe doesn’t get a copy of Christmas In The Heart I’d give him mine. But my family would never forgive me. It would ruin Christmas. Joe’s Santa is that what you want? To ruin Christmas in my house? That’s why I won’t give Joe my copy. Is that what you want? To ruin Christmas in Joe’s house? Unless you only have one copy of Christmas In The Heart, which belongs to you, in which case hold tight, otherwise you will disappoint all relatives, siblings and acquaintances by having a non-Christmassy household. Is that what you want? To destroy Christmas in your own house by gifting the only copy of Christmas In The Heart you have to someone on the Internet? You should be ashamed of yourself.


It’s a vicious circle - gifting Christmas InThe Heart.

Put it in! If they say "what the hell is this?", it's just a stiffener to protect the other albums. Although, now you have created a paper trail.
 
Dear Santee, you'll soon receive two records that are two of my favorites this year. First is an incredible live album recorded by some of the most talented musician and a good starting point to the music I love/listen the most. Second is a record I think you'll love as I tracked your posts in the What's Spinning thread and you spinned quite a few "similar" records. I hope you don't have any of these and will love both.
 
My Santee is going to love what’s coming!

… Except that I had to use international sellers for one, and an artist band camp for the other.

Which means I might be cutting it close to the wire for having it delivered before Christmas.

Will do everything I can, Santee!

So,
My Santa was super fast and with an eclectic taste.
Got Mr. Lif -Dont look down & El Vy - return to the moon.
I really like the latter, but somehow never bought it. Mr. Lif looks like the kind of hip hop i like, but i know nothing about him.
So thanks, Santa. Well Done

Hope you like Mr. Lif! Wasn't really sure what to get since you didn't have a wishlist, but saw you had some hip-hop in your collection, and figured couldn't go wrong with Lif.
 
Dear Santa,

I don't really want 5 copies of the Black Album. Also, my want list is full of expensive things. Please disregard them. Please do not go broke because of my want list. Send me things you think I'll like, or anything that you see is clearly missing from my collection! I'm going to be thrilled with anything :)

- Santee
