THE GREEN PAJAMAS
The Carolers' Song (Hidden Agenda)
Reviewed by DJ Johnson

---

Nearing their 20th year together, Seattle's best kept secret, The Green Pajamas pop up with something that isn't really a Christmas CD but rather a tasty little EP with a Christmas song and a few spiritual themes here and there. It's an indispensable addition to your collection if you already know about this superb folk/garage/psych band, and if you don't, ask someone! Search for an MP3. (Yeah, music execs, I said it!) Find out what you've been missing, then buy this and everything else they've done. Recommendation: the Get Hip release, Indian Summer, which is a compilation that is magnifique. Truly, though, if the mere blending of the words folk/garage/psych interests you, The Green Pajamas could become your favorite band. This 7 song EP may not be a Christmas CD - not with lyrics like "you tell me now she might be waiting on our bed - you'll never get to heaven until you get those thoughts from your head" - but it'll make a good Christmas present. From you to you.
