Whad’ya know? More Christmas tunes!
This time interpreted by Hungarian guitar virtuoso Tamás Szekeres.
This CD was actually sent to me as a gift from his record label [the Dutch department in specific] years ago.
A classy greeting card with a slipcase CD attached inside.
Unfortunately the glue made it impossible to remove it without living a mark and I used a white adhesive tape patch to cover the tear. Perhaps it would have been better off without it…

Anyway, the front cover is a bit misleading as it only says “Seasons Greetings” and the company logo, but if you look at the back you’ll see the full track listing of 1991’s “Christmas in guitarland” album.
The chances of finding a copy are pretty slim, so don’t let the opportunity pass by and grab the CD-rip I prepared.
And since it wouldn’t be complete without the original artwork, I took the initiative to upload a separate RAR containing scans of the first release [the one I own, was reissued 5 years later and it’s merely a *sample*].
Gábor [aka csigabiga], one of the blog readers, was kind enough to inform he has most of Tamás Szekeres CDs and even sent me some links with his own lossless rips 😉
But for now the scans he’s made will suffice.

Have a great holiday everyone 🙂
