White Christmas and Little Drummer Boy Live is a limited edition, 4-piece vinyl-only release by Mark Kozelek. It is a compilation of two previously released limited edition live CD releases, White Christmas Live (2001) and Little Drummer Boy Live (2006). The fourth record features an exclusive bonus track, an alternate recording of "Have You Forgotten."
The four record box set was released by Kozelek's own label Caldo Verde Records along with Cameron Crowe's Vinyl Films label, and sold through Aural Exploits, which describes the set as follows:
“ | Vinyl Films Records and Caldo Verde Records are proud to announce the vinyl debut of Mark Kozelek's two limited edition live albums, White Christmas Live and Little Drummer Boy Live. The former, released in 2001 in a limited pressing of 5,000 CDs, contains such Red House Painters classics as "Things Mean a Lot" and "Cruiser" along with AC/DC covers "What's Next to the Moon" and "Up to My Neck in You." Little Drummer Boy Live, released in 2006, marries such Sun Kil Moon greats as "Salvador Sanchez" and "Carry Me Ohio" with Modest Mouse covers "Tiny Cities" and "Trucker's Atlas," as well as the previously unreleased "Moorestown" and "Unlit Hallway." Both releases are now compiled in one 4-LP boxed set, with the box including the vinyl-only bonus track "Have You Forgotten." White Christmas Live has been long out of print on CD, and Little Drummer Boy Live is rapidly on its way as well. Now, you can have both in this impressive vinyl box set! The release will be limited to 1,000 copies on black vinyl. An ultra-limited tour/internet-only pressing of 300 copies on white vinyl will also be available, exclusively via Aural Exploits and at Mark Kozelek live shows this fall.[1] | ” |
According to an eBay auction posting, the album set was also released on red and green translucent vinyl, and this was limited to 20-25 pressings. While the album was pressed on red and green wax, the total pressing amount is unknown.
