183 - Well, it has been more than 4 and 1/2 years since I started posting at AotM and I'm creeping up on my 300th mix. Not ready to retire just yet, but may slow down since I'll be either training for a new job or looking seriously for one in the coming months.

Single Artist
Put this mix together around eight months ago since I felt Louis Armstrong deserved to have his own single artist tribute. I've since done a Vintage mix of his material that I'll be posting soon.

Comment:
Another installment in my continuing Annual Christmas mix ritual. I've been doing this for the last few years and always think that I'll run out of good songs to pick (but it hasn't happened yet). The pic is of Vera Lynn who sings two songs on this mix.
Feedback:
Good start with the girl group and Connie Francis is always welcome. Thanks for the musical cheer.
Merry Xmas, Joe. Connie doing Ave Maria, nice! Fats Domino, Frosty the Smowman?? Gotta hear that..
