A Soul Christmas with Eli ”Paperboy” Reed

<p>I love when episodes overlap. Today, soul singer <a href='https://elipaperboyreed.bandcamp.com'>Eli "Paperboy" Reed</a> talks about--among other things--his love of Huey "Piano" Smith's Christmas album, which we recently featured. </p> <p>Reed has a new album, Hits and Misses: The Singles on YepRoc Records, and today we're talking about that and his Christmas music, including a snappy version of "Last Christmas" by Wham!</p> <p>Along the way, we talk about a couple of tracks that weren't available on mp3, "<a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2pq-R_Qjko'>What Do the Lonely Do at Christmas</a>" by The Emotions and Reed's "Party Hard for Christmas." The link will help you get you to the first track, but he and/or his management appear to have taken down "Party Hard for Christmas." You'll hear why in the episode.  </p>
