Many many moons ago, when I was just a wee tyke, I used to listen to the Muppets singing Christmas Carols with John Denver (oh yes, Rocky Mountain John Denver) every Christmas. We had it on LP and we used to listen to a cassette recording all the way to Melbourne and back each year.Last Christmas I finally caved and bought the CD from Amazon BUT! It was so upsetting when it finally arrived and was missing several tracks. Maybe some doofus thought that they couldn't fit all 13 tracks on the CD so they only put on 10. What*ever* - though it had the joy of the Twelve Days (Badum dum dum) and the Christmas is Coming round (it's finished - oh, I knew that) and and and, figgy pudding (made with figs - and bacon!) it *didn't* have Rowlf singing Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, which I have to admit is probably my favouritest soppy Christmas song ever, especially when sung by Rowlf.

So imagine my joy when I discovered that this Christmas, Amazon has the limitededitiondigitallyremasteredspecialcollectorsversiononlyforashorttimerelease of Christmas with the Muppets which has all-thirteen-songs.

Now I have to go brave the christmas shopping crowds to see if I can find it before Christmas actually arrives.

Sigh.
