The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
This has been a long time coming: The Complete Holiday Singles - ripped and remastered by Wendy Carlos's Twin
A vast improvement on any other collections circulating on the interwebs, each track has been individually remastered from clean vinyl rips, and replaced with digital sources where available (e.g. 2000 tracks taken from Las Vegas 10/22/00 official bootleg; 'Someday At Christmas' is taken from a promo CD; 'Love, Reign O'er Me' is taken from a promo CD featuring the full one-minute intro and then edited to match the intro-less vinyl version)
RE-POST: PLEASE DOWNLOAD AGAIN AND DELETE PREVIOUS VERSION
This set has been updated since the original post on 19 June, with the following tracks now sourced from the digital FLAC singles recently made available. Artwork has also been updated and will be updated again once back cover art for 2017-2018 7" singles is available.
'Angel' 'Gimme Some Truth (Live)' 'Don't Believe In Christmas' 'I Believe in Miracles (Live)' 'Someday At Christmas' 'Santa God' 'Jingle Bells' 'Santa Cruz' 'Falling Down (Live)'
Full source info now also available (see bottom of this post).
2010-2019 tracks are taken from official TenClub MP3s, which are also available in their raw form via the download link.
Enjoy!

Are these new vinyl rips compared to previous compilations?
These rips were done a few years ago but you'll have to ask brad if he ever released them, because I can't remember.
Regardless, they are new and much better clean-up jobs.
Having looked around at what was available a short while ago, it seemed to me that most places (blogs, etc..) have hodge-podges or rips that I did a long time ago and other sketchy things anyway.

What remastering was done?
I wouldn't really call it remastering - just basically click removal and making sure the levels were somewhat consistent from track to track.

Were the disc 3 tracks vinyl-sourced or were the mp3s remastered?

MP3's but not remastered.
Thanks for the info!
Also, the tags in the Disc 3 Raw MP3s folder are messed up from 99 Problems onwards FYI.
