Am feeling very Christmas’d out at the moment.

Too many things to do and not enough time/cash to do them how I’d like. Also djing this time of year is generally not so great-those chi-chi little bars I play have been invaded by maurading office parties and the usually less than polite punter/deejay superstar interactions have plummetted to new depths of rudeness.

Anyway enough of my scroogness, it’s a shame that this time of year we all get overcome by this collective mania an don’t spend our time and energy on the really important stuff (like getting down to golden age xmas hiphop anthems)

Here is Run DMC’s enormous ‘Christmas in Hollis’ to restore your seasonal feelings of joy and good will to all men. It’s just about the only christmas track in my collection (spector aside- natch) that really does it for me.
