Back in 2004 I was asked by BBC 6 Music to put together a few 10 minute mixes of Christmas based funk & soul tunes, and by 2005, when they asked me to do 3 more, it grew into the first volume of my Dr Rubberfunk Funky Christmas series. I made it available for download to a great response, so Volume 2 followed in 2006.

Since the Funky Halloween mix went online back in October, I've had lots of messages asking for another installment in the Funky Christmas series, so after much digging in the crates I'm pleased to announce…
