Another of the artists featured on this compilation? T.Rexmania. I suppose it's these guys, Spain's top T. Rex tribute band - http://www.myspace.com/trexmaniaband

Wow. You two really owe it to us to covers this whole album. Maybe even start a whole 'nother blog for the endeavor - I vote for themostecclectic.blogspot.com.

Something on this album is misleading? Get outta here!

On further review, it appears that the Bay City Rollers track is in fact from a solo Christmas album by Ian Mitchell. If so, it's more than a little misleading to list it as by the group, but oh well.

hehe…yeah! They should just do a new Under The Covers album every month or so…they sound so great together. Judging from your page, you'd appreciate that when they took questions here on Popdose for those two, one of mine was the suggestion that they do “Somewhere Near Japan” if they do an 80s album. Matthew gave me a withering laugh.

Thanks for the tip! I think the next logical step is an Under the Covers Christmas collection from Matthew & Susanna. They could run thru all the songs you alluded to: “Thanks for Christmas,” “Jesus Christ”, either FoW tune…

No, the Bangles' Christmas song is called "Light My Way". It came out as an iTunes download a two years ago, and was produced by Matthew Sweet. Unfortunately I don't have an mp3 (I do have a lot of the power-pop Christmas stuff), but you can at least hear the song at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3iNrD7umKg

Your show sounds good; I'll try to check it out.

All those artists you mentioned are in the running for my Christmas special next week...except for the Bangles, who aren't represented by any Yuletide offerings in my library. I just did some Googling; are you referring to "Bangle Jangle Christmas"? I'll have to get familiar with that one.
