A couple years ago, or maybe just last year, I can't remember, I started packing away CD"s I was buying between October and November to have myself a CD a day Christmas countdown. It's like getting a gift every day leading up to the holiday. It helps tied over the excitement of the coming day, and well, it's just fun.
This year's focus was live albums, and 80's discography clean up. The latter meaning that it wasn't necessarily an album I had on my want list for a specific song, but rather to have an entire decade collection of a specific artist.
This first album I picked up was for the hits, but was actually a recent addition to my want list.
The English Beat (or The Beat as they're known in the UK) released their debut album, I Just Can't Stop in 1980, and immediately took the punk scene by storm with their eclectic mix of Jamaican reggae, punk, and pop. It soared up the charts with the aid of singles, Mirror in the Bathroom, and Hands Off...She's Mine.
