As we do each year around this time, we’d like to extend a special thanks to all of you reading this message for your year-round support of the artists and music that we love. The stories below will be our final full postings before we return in early January, and we hope that with these stories and liners, together with all our recent holiday audio, our 2011 reading of “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas,” and our year-in-review, we’ve given you a great trove of material to share this holiday season. So again, thank you for all that you do, and from all of us to all of you, we wish you a very happy, safe, and beautiful holiday season.
