What's to your liking this time of year?
I love modern artists doing christmas albums. Although there have been some abysmal Christmas albums, by well-known artists, the rock group ones seem to add a twist to the classics that keep me coming back.
My best one is oddly enough, the Barenaked Ladies Christmas album that is just fantastic.
Second, Leon Redbone, for that old-style Jazz/blues sound. That is such a great album.

I agree with you. New twists on old classics excite me.

Not a Christian. Don't even play one on TV. But I've got my Pandora Christian Contemporary station trained just exactly to my liking! Love it!

And it's not Christmas without my old cassette tape of the Muppets Christmas......

George, you need this CD! :mrgreen:
I've been playing it for years....and have not met another soul who appreciates it as much as I do. Maybe you're the one.....

I love the TSO! I'd also like to hear more of Rod Stewart's new Christmas album.

OK - If this topic was titled "Christmas music that is tolerable after a few glasses of eggnog", I might relent and offer jazz piano interpretations like Cyrus Chestnut or Butch Thompson's Christmas albums. But no lyrics. And don't get me started on "It's a Wonderful Life"...
