LEW CHARLES - CHIMES AT DUSK LP 57


 Well, got two chimes posts this year as I ran out of the popular Jesse Crawford chimes vinyl.  They always sound so loud and crispy clear on vinyl.

Peter-John Morse - On The Shoreline LP 77


 REPOST Request:  What I wrote last time:  Hell, it was only $3 or so from a request by E.W. and he has sent in some good selections so I went and got this and another one he was asking about for next week.  Is this what you would call Yacht Rock?  Good!

Do'a - ORNAMENT OF HOPE LP 79


 This is a cool sounding album.  Per discogs:  Do'a (later known as Do'ah) was an American world music ensemble formed in 1974 by Randy Armstrong and Ken LaRoche. Their first album was recorded as a duo. They later expanded to a five piece ensemble. Do'a recorded a total of five albums in the 1970s and 1980s.

A Child's Garden Of Grass - A Pre-Legalization Comedy LP 71


 REPOST Request:  An enjoyable one for headphones per the comment.  What I wrote before:  This one's almost as good as the last quirky comedy vocal record I posted a month or so ago called "A Pause In The Disaster LP 70 - The Satire Of The Conception Corporation" which has really grown on me over time and I think it's awesome.  You may recognize a classic sample here of someone saying and sounding out the word "marijuana" maybe from Beastie Boys, but not sure.

Love And Kisses - st LP 77 w How Much, How Much I Love You LP 78 w You Must Be Love LP 79


 REPOST Request:  From Discogs:  "Love & Kisses" was the brainchild of Alec R. Costandinos.
Costandinos was born Alexandre Kouyoumdjiam in Cairo, Egypt, in 1944 to an Armenian father and a Greek mother.  First ever post from Egypt so appropriate for Christmas stuff above.

DONNA SUMMER - Discography


 Just showing the vinyl I ripped while the rest is 320/CD from another blog where I numbered all songs in order of release  and left out doubles from Greatest Hits while including added songs from those.  Goes with my disco album of the week right above as I always like to add on comp's to artist posts.
