A masterpiece. Cristina was married to ZE label boss Michael Zilkha, which made her heiress to the Mothercare Fortune at the time
Day 5: Produced by Don Was, this was on the ZE label’s 1981 compilation 'A Christmas Record’ as the track before ‘Christmas Wrapping’ by The Waitresses. It deserves to be just as well known!

Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

First I had to see the awful Paddington bear / Chris Rea thing.
Then my wife sent these photos while shopping in Crewe.
This is not acceptable

The Sharp WQ-274E was not intended for Debussy, but it's an easy way to assess wow & flutter (acceptable)It's been a bit of a saga, but we'll now be listening to this cute little #boombox on Christmas morning - Vince Guaraldi, Motown Christmas, James Brown's Funky Christmas 🤶

Superb article thanks
A hill I have managed to not die on over the past few decades is that Toni Basil is so much more than just a one hit wonder, remarkably so, from artist film to Easy Rider to poppin' and lockin' to RuPaul's Drag Race, she's been at the vanguard of counter culture since the early 60s
When I interviewed Toni Basil in 2021 we both marvelled at the fact that no-one had made a movie or documentary of her life. They still haven’t. Plus, if it was a movie she’d be able to choreograph her own life story.
