#TBT to last year’s #vinylsanta. I only got one LP (I’m not mad at the sender, but if you’re reading this, I hope you can be more generous this year), and I was delighted to see Dolly when I opened the package.

It's always right about this time I start to feel I should do more on this platform. Not because I have anything noteworthy to say but because #VinylSanta is coming.

Sending someone some Rolf for #VinylSanta would very likely get you booted. Not a joke.

Time for us to formally close off #vinylsanta 2025. We'll keep the fundraiser link for Vince in our bio. Would be nice to top £200. 😉 Thanks again for the donations and for taking part in this year's Vinyl Santa. We'll see you in November! 🎅 actingforothers.enthuse.com/pf/vincewill...

The fundraiser this year brought in £181/ $244/€208 for Acting for others. Thank you to everyone who chipped in. We have never tied the event to a charity before and are very happy to have been able to do something in Vince’s memory.

Per the guidelines a good VS is 3-5 records in good condition. Most everyone from what we have seen managed this, but not all. Next year we will be more stringent about this. If you send one record and it’s not your recipient’s bag then their whole VS is a bust.

#vinylsanta I apologize for the late exclamatory thanks to my #VinylSanta. We have family staying and it’s a been long time since we have seen them. Besides that my wife put the carton in one their rooms since the tree came up later. My Vinyl Santa is a newbie this year, but he is GREAT! Love it!

Apologies for the delay, but #vinylsanta decided I’d been a good boy and dropped these down the chimney - an album that was a mainstay of every student digs when I was at college, and something I’ve never heard of but look forward to exploring.

Thank you so much to my #VinylSanta whomever you are. Some classic Christmas cheer, new to me but curious, Bowie adjacent soundtrack and classic Gary Numan record. More description in Alt text. Excellent choices, thanks again. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!

Two Christmas records and classics:

Gene Autry Sings Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer & Other Favorites

Celebrate The Season With Tupperware

Julian Cope - My Nation Underground

I'm not familiar with his work but feels like he'd be in my ven diagram of interests

Cat People Soundtrack

Looking forward to the synth and to hear Bowie's original version of Cat People (Putting Out Fire)
