Ray Conniff & The Ray Conniff Singers-We Wish You A Merry Christmas
Various Artists-Christmas Eve with Colonel Sanders (Seriously--back about Christmas '67 Mom brought an LP of it home along with a big bucket of chicken and sides. It was a great Christmas that year. I found it available several years ago on CD. )
For classical/choral music lovers, check out “A Dan Forrest Christmas,” with some of the best choral arrangements of carols you’ve ever heard.

Appropriately seasonal without throwing Christmas in your face with every cut. Not loud. Very relaxing.

Love me some G Winston. He's performed at a local dinner venue a few times, tickets are not cheap, but includes a 3 course meal with the show.

My middle son graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College. We were lucky enough of attend in person two of their Christmas concerts. By far the best best Christmas concerts I've ever attended. I have two loaded on my iPod. Fantastic stuff from concept, to readings, to three exceptional choirs, symphony, bell choir, dancers, and soloists. Since the church of my youth and where I got married has been torn down Gustavus Christ Chapel is my new home of spirituality. Even though I probably will never return.

He's a poster child for ADD. He's a seriously underrated guitarist.
