    I got the original press of this on Christmas Eve (real world finds related), along with a nice grip of other rare calypso 45s. The below youtube is the Colombian bootleg. Feliz Navidad me!



    Also, some dude had a yard sale on christmas eve right on Telegraph Ave that I hit up on my way to Whole Foods to get stuff for a holiday party, and I scored a bunch of rare reggae 45s.

    For actual presents, I got a nice leather bomber jacket from my girl, electric razor (a popular gift around these parts I see), and some custom curtains crafted from handmade Turkish textiles from my moms.

    Jewelery holder for my bling. Much better than the pushpins I was using to hang necklaces.

    Gift that keeps on giving (from brother-in-law): 2-year Wax Poetics subscription
    Gift we wanted the most but did not get: Wife's mom to be out of the hospital. She's been in since 12/13.

    most predictable gift was a couple of achingly dull ECM CDs from my Dad. Background music for retirees
