Nearly 2 full hours of Kmart Christmas muzak from 1974.
You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...Tags: None -

nice one. Would love to know where the pic is from. Looks a lot like the one in LaSalle/Peru. Spent many a Sunday there sitting in the car with my dad listening to the Cubs or Bears on the radio while waiting on Mom.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

That’s much nicer than I expected! Thanks for sharing it! I’m going to revisit it as the season wears on.

^ It immediately made me think of the zealous organ-playing neighbor in Edward Scissorhands. I sure don't see a Christmas connection.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

As nostalgic as this makes me feel, it also makes me sad.
Mainly because the picture of the Kmart in the video looks a lot like our local one that closed several years ago.
It also happened to be the only department store in our city, so I spent a lot of time there.
And at this point there is only one operating Kmart in about 150 mile radius.Comment

I never set foot in a K-Mart until I was 15 years old. (they just weren't around in the places I lived up until that point), but I remember department store Christmas "muzak" playing in other places like Macy's, Gimbels, and maybe Woolworths. But the first part of that "Merry Merry Christmas" jingle in the '79 ad was still going in the 80s."Do you believe, you believe in magic?
'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
If your mission is magic your love will shine true."Comment
