Christmas is almost here so it's time to share some of my Christmas records! I know this one has probably been shared a lot by others, but those of you who don't have it, here is one of my favorites. This record was obviously released to capitalize on the "Tijuana sound" popularized by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass and by the Baja Marimba Band. Since I like both those bands, I knew I would like this record, and I do find it quite enjoyable. The cover is so kitschy that I find it worth framing during this time of year. So, here's the Border Brass to help you get in the Christmas spirit!

¡Gracias y Feliz Navidad!
I love this blog! I stumbled onto this after looking up my copy of George Shearing's White Satin album that I got at my local Half Price Books here in Houston.
A totally festive & kitschy share, Esther - thank you!
