So, here we go! We stopped our Advent calendar after Window 10 on December 10. Why? Because we had an idea.
And after letting all the other calendars finish December 24, we now have the luxury of being the only Advent calendar still alive and filling those final few hours of 2013 with the remaining 14 windows we have in store.
Here's 11 - 15:

And while we're on the subject of physical records we wonder if this might be the answer to a question we ponder now and then. "How big can a CD-box be?"
It's Karajan 1938-1960 released about a year ago. A box set of ... 117 CD's!

And as far as year end charts go the 50 Worst Albums of 2013 from Vice is now and again a slightly smile-inducing read. Although we haven't heard much of the music they sometimes get around to mentioning inbetween bursts of ... well, go check it out for yourself.
