XMAS MIX

I don't know about anyone else, but if i have an absolute hatred for that bastard Pogues song and although i have a secret soft spot for Slade's festive staple ( IT'S CHRIIISSSSTMMASS!) there's only so many times you can listen to the same 25 standard Christmas records. So (and i realise any credibility we may of once had may now be lost) here's Jocko's Xmas mix! It ranges from 60's Soul, Gospel and reggae, 30's carols and couple of contemporary re-rubs of old classics. It features not 1 but 2 cuts from Phil Spector's 'A Christmas gift for you' THE number one festive album of all time, if you haven't heard it, I'd really recommend it..
