Link: HEAR/ORDER
Retailers must know something I don't. Apparently, people like buying things well before the holiday. Why else would marketers be promoting the Christmas selling season months in advance?
We have radio stations in our area that switch to all-Christmas music on November 1st -- which does seem a bit strange, especially because their playlists are so limited and in the first few hours you've basically heard all the songs they intend to play for the next 8 weeks. (You may have noticed they even play Christmas songs up to New Year's Eve!)
What is all this leading up to? Well, "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em." So I wanted to remind you that a GREAT Christmas present -- to yourself or a friend/loved one -- is "The Great Jim Reeves" 8 CD set.
OK. I admit it. Last night I took out CD 7 and listened to a few of the new overdubs of some of Jim's Christmas songs. It has been awhile since I heard them and the remastering on Jim's voice has given him so much "presence" -- as Larry would describe it -- and richness, you can palpably feel Jim's presence in the room with you. It has really brought him alive.
Unless you own this set you can't know the sheer joy that this incredibly beautiful music can bring you!!!!!
I understand there were 31 musicians and singers involved in this project, as 92 of the 170 songs are overdubbed, giving them an up-to-date, fresh sound. This included top-notch musicians who have played with big artists, and also current members of the Grand Ole Opry band.
I also know that a huge campaign will launch soon to promote this 8 CD set around the world, so you will be seeing and hearing commercials for it. And your local radio stations may well be playing some of the Christmas tracks.
But there is SO MUCH MORE on this 8 CD set, which has been divided up to cover Jim's Early Days; Rarities & Alternate Vocals; Gospel; Narratives & Folk; The Nashville Sound; Pop Stylings; New Songs & Christmas; plus In Concert & Interview.
"The Great Jim Reeves" CD set is about to become VERY HIGH PROFILE with a media blitz (that's the only way to describe it), but you can order your copy right here, right now, TODAY, and have it shipped to you immediately.
It's only $49.95 and that's about 29 CENTS PER SONG!!! How can you beat that?
You get a gorgeous set in an elegant presentation high gloss, silver trimmed package with a fascinating and colorful 48-page booklet inside, (that talks about each song), written by Larry Jordan, with an assist from daughter Sara. (Speaking of whom, is currently helping a high profile San Francisco attorney).
I promise you, if you have not yet ordered this set, you will enjoy every minute of it. It is splendidly well done and a real treasure to enjoy for years to come.
AND IF YOU HAVE ALREADY PURCHASED THIS SET, you know how fantastic it is. Why not order another copy?
