christmas music


I'll go ahead and take some darts to mention christmas music this early in the year, but what are some of your favorite christmas albums? I can't necessarily speak for sonics with these choices, as I don't have a vinyl rig currently, but these sure take me back to listening to some LPs with my family as a child. I have to vote for the Elvis christmas album (as a friend once told me, "it's not christmas until elvis says so") and Andy Williams christmas LP. I am anxious to hear some of your choices. I just bought Josh Groban's christmas cd in anticipation of the holiday season.

I don't mean to be offensive, but you have to know this site has some heavy hitters and throwing out Andy Williams......well. This seems like schlock, when there is so much great Christmas music out there, well performed and produced.

Try some great Christmas music such as Harry Connick Jr., Diana Krall, Ella Fitzgeral, "A Jazzy Wonderland" with the likes of Branford Marsalis, Terence Blanchard and Joey DeFrancesco. Cyrus Chestnut & Friends or "A Concord Jazz Christmas 2" which opens with Maynard Ferguson.

The Proprius recording Cantate Domino is a perennial favorite. Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields with Neville Marriner performing the Nutcracker is classic.
Hope this enriches, it's not meant to insult.
