referencing Ghosts Of Christmas Past (Remake) (2×LP, Compilation, Limited Edition, Reissue, Stereo, White) TWI 158
As a newcomer to this label, and many of the artists, this is a real pick n mix of interesting, and sometimes bizarre, Christmas songs. Highlights include Marsheaux and The Wake plus the playful Aztec Camera instrumental opener. The gatefold cover and white vinyl are lovely. There's a bit of surface noise but the mix is good with plenty of depth and highs. Overall, worth purchasing for fans of alternative, quirky Christmas music.- Soft Verdict's "For Christmas Only" is an almost identical version to "Circular Breathing" from "Vergessen", in case anybody does not know.

Why for heaven sake again so many tracks that have been released again and again on the Various GOCP samlpers?
What about "Monks In The Snow-A Theme For This Special Evening" and "Blue Christmas" from the genius Thick Pidgeons.
