It just isn't Christmas without...

...Nick Lowe

"Children Go Where I Send Thee"

 

...NRBQ

"Christmas Wish"

 

..Without it starting in mid October. If I was ever lucky enough to appear on the t.v. show "Room 101" Christmas would be the first item I would select to be thrown in the bin.....

 

Steve Lukather, Eddie Van Halen, Slash, Steve Vai and Sammy Davis Jr.

 

It's not Christmas in our house until this little fella appears on the front door. He also happens to be worth a fortune these days too.

 

Rodriguez.

This song always makes me think of those in need this time of year.

 

We've played this for years. The entire family loves it.

 

"Jesus Christ" - Big Star

 

Lennon, happy xmas

 

Maybe not a traditional christmas song but it is my favorite of the season.

 

For some reason I forget about Take 6. Was aware of them in the early 90’s. Will check this out.

 

Slade I guess.

 

But this one...

Sufjan Stevens: Songs For Christmas. On vinyl.

 

In the UK it has to be `SLADE` ....`Merry Xmas Everybody`, not sure why it is not known in the States? But over here after a few beers it is irresistible! It acts as a foil for the over sentimental sickly mush of the likes of `Cliff Richard`.
I went to a friends home as usual last year for Xmas dinner, and was asked to provide the music, Frank Sinatra`s `The Christmas Album` on Cd provided the dinner music........I later found the disc face down, out of it`s case, on the serving counter in the detritus of the meal! That will teach me to think that other people care.
This is pretty good also....

 

*makes sure not to post a youtube link to "Another Rock N' Roll Christmas"...*

 

Released 60 years ago and still the finest.

 

I've got one you might not hate

 

Actually, this whole album. My older sister had it back when it came out & she wore the grooves out on it.

 

This specific Elvis collection, If Everyday Was Like Christmas, because it contains all his 57 and 71 Christmas songs as well as the 66 track used to name the album.

 

Mike Oldfield ‎– Ommadawn

 

Dylan - Must Be Santa



Classic!
