Lost Cowboy Records hosted its first annual Christmas Party last night, and we are proud to report that 100% of those invited were in attendance. The two most important things at a christmas party (after the booze of course) are the food and the music. The party was strong in both categories, with a delicious spaghetti squash prepared by the hosts, and a nice Holiday mix on the stereo.
We used this recipe for the squash, and it turned out great. Apparently this is a healthy alternative to actual spaghetti – I just thought it tasted good. For desert, we enjoyed Mochi ice cream puff balls. These things are incredible. The music was good but it could have been so much better. I was digging through my old CD book and stumbled across the Holiday Classic “Mission Possible Christmas.” The CD looked like it had been left in a puddle of egg-nog and never cleaned off, so I went through the time-tested CD cleansing routine of a steam coating followed by a delicate shirt rub-down. It is important to be wearing a soft cotton or flannel shirt for step 2. Anyways, despite my valiant effort, I could not get the CD to play. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Mission Possible Christmas, it is a CD that Lost Cowboy Records (at the time doing business as “Haven Records“) released in 2000. I think we raised something like $500 dollars for an orphanage in Africa by selling them for 5 bucks apiece in the high school cafeteria. Some of the highlights include the shred-metal version of Carol of the Bells, and Scott Gould and Brad Phillips beautiful duet of “The First Noel.” While home for the holidays, I will be tracking down a mint copy and making duplicates so I can enjoy for years to come. If you would like your very own copy of this Classic Record please contact Lost Cowboy Records. The price is zero dollars with free shipping inside the continental US. Sales tax not applicable in California or Indiana.
