This was a gem I bought at Strawberries Records and Tapes back in '86. You can see from the price tag it was a special value...

The 3 songs I remember hearing on the radio were Rockin' In A Christmas New Year from The Fools, Christmas In Kenmore Square from Billy West & Tom Sandman (which I still think are great songs) and You Don't Have To Buy Me Anything For Christmas from Barry Marshall & Beth Harrington.....those songs were played for years and years....

And of course, take a look at the bands featured: The Fools, Barry Marshall, The Outlets, The Neighborhoods, Barrence Whitfield and The Savages, The Nervous Eaters, Semper Fi and don't forget Willie Loco Alexander.....big names on the Boston music scene at that time....

Please give it a listen and Happy Holidays!!!!!!!!!

This is a great collection of songs. Wish there was a way to purchase a clean, digital copy.
