It’s officially December and with Christmas only a couple of weeks and change away, folks near and far hasten to purchase gifts, Xmas trees and other necessary accouterments to commemorate the season to be jolly. It’s a stressful process, we know, but here’s some seasonal music courtesy of DJ Mick Boogie and PLNDR.com to keep you in the Christmas spirit.
The project, aptly titled A Mick Boogie Christmas, features legends like James Brown, Marvin Gaye, The Jackson 5, Stevie Wonder, Minnie Ripperton, and modern acts like Cee-Lo Green. Mick put his foot in this one. My only gripe is with his decision not to include The Temptation’s “Silent Night” and Donny Hathway’s “This Christmas.” Come on bro. Those are quintessential Christmas records, man.
