EARLIER THIS MONTH I MENTIONED HERE THAT THERE WAS AN LP OF BASIL RATHBONE DOING "THE CHRISTMAS CAROL". WELL KIDDIE RECORDS WEEKLY WAS KIND ENOUGH TO POST IT FOR US ALL TO SHARE. THE WEBSITE IS NOT SET UP SO I CAN LINK DIRECTLY TO AN INDIVIDUAL RECORD SHARE. YOU CAN GO TO THE 2007 PAGE HERE, AND SCROLL DOWN TO THE END OF THE LEFT HAND COLUMN TO WEEK 51 OF DECEMBER 2007. THERE YOU WILL SEE THE LINK TO GRAB THIS GREAT LP. THANKS KIDDIE RECORDS WEEKLY. HERE'S AN IMAGE OF THE LP FRONT COVER:
I am so pysched to have found this record of Basel Rathbone's Christmas Carol! We had this on the B side of a record of carols when I was growing up in the early 60s, and my brother taped it on a cassette - the record was long gone, and his tape was so worn that trying to make a CD out of it was nearly hopeless. We both had listened to it so many times that we can practically narrate it by heart. But to have a "clean" version is priceless.
