    kelly w: i did this a few years ago, so i’m guessing there are easier/better solutions now (like USB turntables). i used a RCA to 1/8 cable from the turntable to an iMic and then into the computer via USB. then i recorded it with final vinyl, and if i remember correctly, i changed the format in iTunes. it’s not the ideal option for converting vinyl to MP3 but it’s cheap and does the job.

    Glorioski, this is great. To this day, i can’t sing a christmas song without working in the accompaniment from the versions I knew as a kid. ba-bum-ba-bo-bum You know what I mean. This is what it’s all about. ♥

    Fila 11: I just tested the link, and it seems to be working just fine! After clicking, you need to enter the 4-letter code, then wait for the 25-second countdown. When it gets to 0, click on “regular download” — you shouldn’t have any trouble! :)

    Thank you Anna ! I will certainly download this tonight (I am at work for the moment… ;-)
    And I can totally relate – my family has this tape from the 70′s with Christmas songs in German (recorded by the ‘Fischer Chöre’) and I could not imagine having Christmas without it.
    Your post also reminds me to have it transferred to a digital format for the enjoyment of the next generation :-)

    Anna, this is great! Thanks so much for uploading it. A few of these songs are familiar to me, though I know them in German. It’s great to hear different versions and in a different language. I’ve added these songs to my Christmas mega-mix!
