This holiday season, it bears remembrance that music is a timeless gift, and whether you’re looking to bless your own record player or someone else’s, we’re here to give you a shot at winning just the kind of vinyl with which to do it.

Paste and leading vinyl subscription service Vinyl Me, Please are teaming up to give away a bundle of VMP’s December 2019 Records of the Month, three exclusive, limited-edition LPs no record collection is complete without.

VMP’s December selections break down into three categories—the Essentials Record of the Month, the Classics Record of the Month and the Rap & Hip-Hop Record of the Month—though those first two titles certainly apply to all three albums. And one lucky winner will get their hands on all of ‘em.

Readers who want a chance to win these three albums can enter here. U.S. and Canadian entries only. Contest runs today, Thursday, Dec. 5, through Thursday, Dec. 12, at 11:59:59 p.m. E.T.

First up is Aretha Franklin’s essential Essentials album I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love You (1967), featuring “Respect” and numerous other Franklin classics. The album comes on 180g purple and white galaxy color AAA vinyl, cased in a heavyweight jacket, with an exclusive lyric booklet insert.
