Hey, awesome! Largehearted Boy is a great blog. Nice to see them give you the much-deserved love.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Big Band Christmas all the way, baby: [link]
We also love the Charlie Brown, Nat King Cole, Elvis, Johnny Cash, and various Nutcracker versions. I love Christmas music.

GC, have you listened to either of the Brian Setzer Orchestra Christmas CDs? I caught their Christmas concert on PBS last year, and it was loads of fun to watch, and I have their first holiday CD like I said upthread.

David, I'm always interested in your Halloween mixes! And I've been feeling the need for more eerie dark folky music this past week or so.

It's gotten interesting because there are several music blogs devoted solely to Hallwoeen music, year-round. So just about every vinyl oddity/rarity has been digitized. Unfortunately, that means I have to comb through vast swatches of post-Monster Mash knockoffs and parodies with things like "I Want To Bite Your Hand" done in a faux Bela voice.

Yeah, well I've definitely got a bunch of that on hand.
I'd say I would post that stuff tonight but I'm going drinking with Buffistas tonight at Tres Agaves!

We listened to Siouxsie as we decorated the house for Halloween last night. It was fun!

Mostly Ghostly is the biggest. Almost a clearing house for the other blogs.
MM! You might need David McCallum Reads the Dunwich Horror (1976)
Their links on the right are fairly comprehensive.
I have had some excellent scores at Music You (Possibly) Won't Hear Anywhere Else. It's currently looking at the long tradition of Halloween/Christmas music conflation (which apparently goes back well before Nightmare Before Xmas).
Special Alert to Frankenbuddah, Theo and Bev Crime Lounge has a ton of crime jazz available for DL.
