Not so sure about the vocal but a great tune. I'm a big Hawkwind fan I've got all their expanded cds up to 1980.

More awesome contributions, thanks Marky!

25 Days of Christmas (Songs) - Day 20

The Fleshtones - Champagne Christmas


Original release: Stocking Stuffer
Year: 2008

Holy shit, this album is 10 years old now. I've selected a track or two from this record in years past, and here's another winner. The whole album is fuzzed out garage rock Christmas at its best.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Pex Lives!

Ha, don't think I'd ever heard that version of Iggy's White Christmas before. Excellent.

25 Days of Christmas (Songs), 2018 - Day 21

Bobby Helms - Captain Santa Claus (And His Reindeer Space Patrol)


Original release: Jingle Bell Rock b/w Captain Santa
Year: 1957

The, uh, slightly less well-known b-side of Helms' holiday classic, Jingle Bell Rock. This song could pretty much only have come from the year 1957. It's a pleasant, kitschy cut - but I will be honest that it really doen't get any better than the title itself, which is worth the price of admission alone.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

More great picks everyone (can never go wrong with Paranoid Visions Christmas music, had never heard the Iggy White Christmas, and good lord that Go Go's cut...)

Lay off the eggnog Santa! ;)

There's a scientific explanation:

All SSDs store data in electrical charges, which slowly leak over time if left without power. This causes worn out drives (that have exceeded their endurance rating) to start losing data typically after one (if stored at 30 °C) to two (at 25 °C) years in storage; for new drives it takes longer. Therefore, SSDs are not suited for archival purposes.

If I keep forgetting what music I've heard, I keep having the pleasure of discovering new stuff! Can't wait to hear some tunes from this band called "the clash" I've been hearing all about.

There's also a non-scientific explanation: Flex is a turd.

I can't help myself but laugh at this explanation. I'm just a bad person I guess. :mrgreen:
