I'm really impressed with all of y'all doing catchup and continuing to play Christmas music a few days later. I thought putting it on the 26th was risky.

12/27 - Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer: The Island of Misfit Toys is where the Charlie In The Box greets Rudolph and Hermey, and introduces them to the misfit toys. Play something that’s in a misfit genre when compared to the rest of your collection.
My Collection is light in both Classical music and soundtracks so this is a double misfit

12/26 - Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer: Bumbles Bounce! Christmas is over, you get to sneak in one more holiday record before you’re told to bounce. Spin it loud!
Bad Religion – Christmas Songs
This is one of a very small handful of holiday records I would be happy to own on vinyl, but currently I don't!

George Carlin – Occupation: Foole
Until my VMP box that I (foolishly?) swapped for arrives next month this is the only comedy record in my collection. My old neighbour won it at a comedy show a few years ago and gave it to me when he found out I had a record player, since he does not. A few of the bits on it haven't aged well, but I do very much love Carlin, so I've kept it for the meanwhile.

Unlike @avecigrec , I'm not going to pretend that the person on the cover of an album is not me.

This is the only record by an Ethiopian nun that I own. I have spun this almost every day since it arrived and it's so beautiful...in fact it was already on the TT from yesterday.

12/29 - Seinfeld: Festivus is the traditional airing of grievances. Play an album that was used to air a grievance
I wonder who would be foolish enough to pin Keith down during the Feats of Strength, even now that he's in his early 100's.
Playing the original Street Fighting Man for this one.
The Rolling Stones - Beggars Banquet

In retrospect, I could have also just called this Bob Dylan day. So many to choose from.
Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
Ouch.
