Happy holidays music tribe!
Well, Winter Solstice 2022 is now upon us. As I write this, Horizon Records is racing through our 48th Holiday Season. I am filled with a sense of surreal awe and boundless gratitude. I am bemused, and ok, a little proud of how a squirrely, Jazz, Folk, Psyche-Blues-Rock clueless fanatic collector might end up on the corner of Main Street with a team of amazing (and unique!) staffers running a wonderful record store. It seems almost a miracle after all these years or at least it’s a Hi-Fidelity dramedy.
I hope you, our loyal customers know how much we appreciate your kind patronage through four plus decades. I also hope everyone has a chance to sit back and slow down; to enjoy the company of family and friends while some good music is bubbling in the background as yet another Holiday Season flies past us. Hug those you can and are in the room, and maybe call some one who’s not and simply say hello. And finally join us if you are able to pay it forward by supporting your charity of choice as we assist those less fortunate, and help preserve our world, especially now in the winter and all year round too.
Here are a few we like to support:

No, that's not Santa Claus that's Brad Carr! But if you've been good this year, you might get the new Remnants CD in your stocking. If not just come to Horizon and buy your own.

The Meters
Message From The Meters
3LP vinyl set
but it here
This 40-track collection presents the A and B-side of every single that organist Art Neville, guitarist Leo Nocentelli, bassist George Porter, Jr., and drummer Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste cut for the Josie, Reprise & Warner Bros. Virtually their entire singles output (all but two co-produced by the late, great Allen Toussaint) save for a few odds 'n' ends issued mostly overseas. That means that you not only get every hit along with it's hard-to-find B-side but also the rare single mixes, including the especially rare original mono single mixes of the 1968-1971 Josie sides, very few of which have appeared on vinyl since their original 45 release. Most likely the worlds finest funk band.
