Welcome to The Tuna Melt Music Sharity Blog!

It is here that I post old records that I've ripped
to Mp3 format (and grouped in .ZIP files) via File Sharing Sites,
album cover scans and, sometimes,
somewhat coherent ramblings related to said shares.

Most of the items shared are rips of Out-of-Print
(or, at least, very difficult to acquire)
Vinyl Records from my own collection,
or Compilations ("Seasonal" or "Genre-Specific") made up of Mp3 files
either digitally collected or ripped from Compact Disk.

Come on in. Look around.
Scroll downward to find available links.
I hope you find something you like.

If you don't,
you can always come back later, as the variety
of what is made available should be pretty wide-ranging.

The Ames Brothers: There'll Always Be a Christmas


Back to Mono for the Holidays!


Here's one that it is possible to find on Compact Disc, but I highly doubt you're gonna run out this week and get it at your local record store. It's one of Traitor Vic's favorite Christmas Records of all time and he's been listening to and loving this monophonic copy for over 45 years.

  1. The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)
  2. Deck the Halls
  3. O Holy Night! (Cantique de Noël)
  4. Silver Bells
  5. What Child Is This (Greensleeves)
  6. Jingle Bells
  7. Good King Wenceslas
  8. The Night Before Christmas Song
  9. Santa Claus is Coming to Town
  10. C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S
  11. Go Tell It on the Mountain
  12. There'll Always Be a Christmas
I have found that some of the tracks on this album can cause one feel a bit dry. If this happens while you're listening to it, I would suggest quenching your thirst with one of these.

The Candy Cane Martini
1½ oz. vodka
1 tsp. peppermint schnapps
1 oz. club soda

Combine all ingredients in a shaker filled with ice.
Shake once or twice. Stir. Strain into cocktail glass and garnish with small candy cane.
