The Second Day of Second Discmas

December 14, 2011 By Mike Duquette — No Comments

It’s The Second Day of Second Discmas, our special form of holiday greetings to our loyal readers, and we’ve got another round of awesome giveaways for you today.

Today, we’ve got another gift for you from our friends at Legacy Recordings. Sony’s reissue arm has been diligent lately in releasing works from the esteemed Philles Records catalogue, from a series of greatest-hits albums to a fantastic, bonus-filled box of vintage albums from the label’s discography. On The Second Day of Second Discmas, we give to thee a trio of teenage symphonies: three copies of The Essential Phil Spector, a two-disc compilation of Spector-produced hits from The Ronettes, The Crystals, Bob B. Soxx & The Blue Jeans, The Righteous Brothers, Ike & Tina Turner and more, are yours to win!

Now, as our prizes are only getting bigger and better from here, we want as many people as possible to get the chance to win. So we’re giving you a few extra chances to earn some prizes: not only can you enter by sending an e-mail to theseconddisc (at) gmail (dot) com, but you can be eligible to win with each new day by visiting our Facebook page and “liking” this post as it’s cross-posted there, or following us on Twitter and retweeting this post as it’s delivered to our followers. (Now remember, when you enter once, you’re eligible to win any of our prizes over this week and the next, so make sure to spread the word – the earlier you play along, the earlier you’re eligible!) You have until 3:00 pm EST on Thursday, December 15, to enter for The Essential Phil Spector. If you’re emailing, indicate “Second Discmas/Phil Spector” in your subject line!

Good luck, everyone, and make sure to keep coming back to see what we’re giving away soon!
