Episode 244: Fingers Crossed

Even though this episode is coming out after Christmas, it was recorded before Christmas, so basically, it's a Christmas episode.  The boys talk about Santa and Christmas spirit and stuff like that, and of course there's great music tracks, which are almost like little presents.  Anyway, the Legacy Music Hour really hopes you like their gifts.  Fingers crossed.  Full track listing below.

LMH Mixtape #133: Racing Games 3

Episode 133 was the Legacy Music Hour's third lap through racing game music, and it proved without doubt that no matter how many times we return to the track, we're all gonna be winners.  The original episode may have stirred up some controversy when some of Rob's picks were denied admittance for being from horse racing games, but that just meant the boizz would inevitably visit that racetrack at a later date.  Until we get there, jump into (or onto) your favorite motor vehicle and let this mixtape go Bahamas on you.
