New Additions: This Is Not A Christmas Album by Oswald And The Herringbones (1987)

One of my favorite things while crate-digging at local record stores is stumbling upon albums or singles that I had no idea existed. In this instance, I was well aware of the 1992 album Time Doesn't Matter by Oswald And The Herringbones. However, the 1987 album This Is Not A Christmas Album was not on my radar when I stumbled upon it at Elizabeth Records here in Columbus. This, of course, is the album that would produce the single and video for Be By Yourself that ended up on MTV, a nice slice of catchy 80s synth-pop.
