Here's the Christmas single
that the band made as a flexi-disc in 1972 and gave away free at
shows, etc. I wasn't lucky enough to get it
then, but - at enormous expense - I got lucky on eBay.
Note: because the track is taken from that flexi-disc and converted to MP3, it contains the inevitable clicks and crackles that are typical of vinyl recordings, although these are minimal. To download, right click on the title and select the option Save Target As... or Save Link As.... Best of luck & enjoy the fun. If you just want to listen to it, left-click the link instead. |

I'm hoping to be able to offer more tracks that are
otherwise unavailable on CD at some point in the future. This will
involve getting permission from the several people who are copyright
holders to ensure that their interests are protected. My plan, if it
is approved by all interested parties, is to offer downloaders the
chance, through an honesty box, to donate to a charity that has some
relationship with the band. I already do this on the
Tim Rose website, where money
raised via PayPal goes to the NSPCC. As a start, if you enjoyed the Xmas song download, please click on the Honesty Box opposite and donate 65p ($1) of which proceeds (after PayPal charges) will go to the RNLI (fans will understand the significance). Payments should be made to my account, using the email address webmaster@songsinger.info. |

| Meanwhile, as a bit of entertainment (and no donation required) have a listen to each of these pairs of audio clips and then answer the question. Please note: I have found problems playing these audio files on Mozilla Firefox and also on Google Chrome. They play perfectly well on Windows Media Player linked through Windows Explorer. Even then, I found that it took a couple of minutes to load up the first track; thereafter, each track played almost instantaneously. I have no idea why. If using the other two web browsers, it may be better to download and save the files, then play them. If I can solve this problem in a future re-write, I most certainly will. | |||
