New Christmas Music

Or even new to you...

I'm looking to bolster my Christmas music playlist for '09 - last years selection in the Music Forum was pretty good

Anyone have any good picks for the holidays?

Oh yeah, KarlF, I have to bring this one back - my best wishes to you and your bride for a Glad Yul and a Happy, Healthy New Year, since she and I share the same improbable ethnic background...

Im a big Christmas music fan. I think Harry Connick Jrs album is a new classic. That gets a lot of play at my house.

Yup, sure did, Larry - it's been a favorite, 1st CD I played when I broke out the holiday stuff - great mix of songs.

I got it last year and while I was burning some Christmas music for my 97 year old uncle's new stereo system, I included the JT Christmas album

He's a lifelong jazz afficianado, has 78's going back to the 1920's, so I recorded a lot of more traditional stuff for him - Sinatra, Tony Bennett, some Christmas-y jazz stuff

His favorite?

Yup, he really like the JT album the most, he said...

So thanks - from me and Uncle Bill...

Aww, go ahead, Karl...you can always claim the soda made you do it like I do...

Yup, after my second Pepsi these days I'm one rootin' tootin' son of a gun...

YUCK. I get so sick of X-mas music....
My lovely wife prefers Mirah Carey X-mas

I had to dig out Led Zep BBC sessions to offset the X-mas music....

Hey, Ebeneezer - there's always a chance you could undergo a Christmas conversion like old Mr Scrooge himself

Besides, it's gonna be different for you from this point out with that young lad waiting for Santy Claus every year...

Who knows, Dad could turn into a Cool Yule Dude...

I am a huge Bocelli fan. Here is the promo for his album. We have it and love it.



If you ask me this is a must have christmas album.

RIJIMMY - Thanks, I'm gonna get the HC album for sure - I've always liked anything with that NOLA flavor

In fact, I was listening to 'Creole Christmas' when I saw your post - great album with Allen Toussaint, Dr John, Irma Thomas and Johnny Adams

If you don't have it, pick it up - it's in our holiday rotation around here...

Good one Karl.......never heard it before

I'm surprised Reba or Patti Loveless hasn't covered that one

Gotta listen to it a few more times so I can get the lyrics down, though...
