I don't know what you are talking about Clint.
This Christmas album is a pure, underrated and unique masterpiece of the Christmas album series that gets pumped out every year.
I have heard nothing like this and it's already a good album. It's very unique with it's sounds and rhythms, that it presents a true, warm, and good feeling in your heart.
This soundtrack is a combination of what I hear from games such as Mother 3, Super Mario 64, and Klonoa. But, I also feel like it comes from those old Yamaha or Casio keyboards. Specifically the Yamaha PSR-300 or DX-7.
Overall, I give this album a 9. 5 out of 10. It's something to listen to with your family on a Christmas night. This is 10x better than the pop covers of popular Christmas songs, that's for sure.

Seems like gas station stand music. Gas stations and small general stores used to have a stand or two of -not big big name- tapes with usually vague titles like this. People travelling might buy one for 4 bucks to have some new music for their trip. I don't think I ever bought a cassette tape from one of those stands. or maybe I did and my super-ego keeps me from remembering it. The fact that your tape was in good surprisingly good shape and somebody else just uploaded this tape to the tube suggests maybe their was a bunch of old new stock somewhere (maybe bulk old stock purchase) that was sent to flea markets. - You should use the 12 days of Christmas song at 9: 50 for your intro for future Christmas videos. lol. -

Welp, you won't believe this. When the music started playing, I couldn't shake the feeling that I had heard these songs before. I'm with my folks for the holidays, so I stopped the video to ask them if we ever owned a cassette of electronic Christmas music when I was young. My mother said yes, she had one she had bought for my siblings and I back when I was 2 (I'm 29 now. We went into the basement and found it, it was just like here in the video. We brought it back upstairs and listened to the whole thing together. Thank you for reawakening these memories for my family, LGR!

In Salt Lake City in the early 90-s our White Pages had a 1-800 number you could call to listen to all kinds of things; news, sports scores, time/date, etc. Around the holidays you could listen to Christmas music by selecting option 5 or the like. I am pretttty sure this was the music I was hearing as a kid. Almost instantly I recognized the rif of Jingle Bells.

Silver Bells Music in Nashville sounds familar. Looking at their discography, I am almost positive I had Smokey Mountain Christmas, and I liked weird albums back in the days, so I am sure I seem to recall having a thunderstorm album and a rainforest album and a stream album. I cannot say if it was these albums in partucular I had, but they look familar

So the poor man's Mannheim Steamroller basically. I guess I was expecting something more akin to chiptune or AdLib music with -computer- in the name-as niche as that would have been-but this is about what you'd expect the background music of your average top-40 pop song at the time to sound like.

Well, that was neat. You should make this a regular segment. 'LGR plays random tapes from the thrift store' ok the title is a bit of a mouthful but still. Every few months just play a random tape from decades past. It is cheap, easy, and if it is anything like this, down right amusing.

Horded a bunch of these back in the early 00s. Found them at thrift stores all around the country while on tour. So they managed to get them out there. Have some in clear cassetre shell as well. This shit is so good I jam it all year, and find it inspirational for my own music.

Aww. am I the only one who was disappointed that the music isn't composed using the Amiga sound chip, Adlib, CMS, MT-32 etc? This is just a bunch of 80's synths, nothing computer about it, except it was probably programmed on an Atari ST.

I remember buying this back in the 90s and playing the absolute heck out of it. Love it. Then eventually lost the tape, bought an ebay copy about mid 2000s, its a must have. It would be nice if it could be remastered in true stereo.
