On the Right Side of Christmas 2017

  It's been pretty warm here in the northeastern United States, but Christmas is just a month away which means it's time for another Christmas music compilation.   I've also re-upped all the previous Christmas compilations.

Man, That Cat is Gone: A John Hiatt Retrospective


       I was listening to John Hiatt's great late 80s/early 90s trio of albums (Bring the Family, Slow Turning, and Stolen Moments) a few months back and was impressed by how well they had aged.  I've also been listening a lot to the rest of his catalog so I finally put together a John Hiatt compilation.  (Btw, it's one download for both discs.)
