have not had the chance to see him as BSO, yet, but did see the Stray Cats back in the early 80's fantastic show then https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

“A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Spector”. Forget for a moment he was a psycho, abusive, murdering nut job. If you can separate the Artist from the Man, this is a top 5 Christmas album. Darlene Love and The Ronettes are brilliant. “Crisis is the rallying cry of the tyrant.” – James Madison "Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others." - Robert Louis Stevenson | |||

Chicago XXV: The Christmas Album -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- All his life he tried to be a good person. Many times, however, he failed. For after all, he was only human. He wasn't a dog.” ― Charles M. Schulz | |||

I just listened to that one. It is good music. My favorite Christmas song is Mel Torme's version of "The Christmas Song." He was one of the greatest singers ever. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

My Christmas playlist is the old standards--mostly Dean Martin and Bing Crosby with a dash of Judy Garland, Perry Como, and Sinatra. I also like the Glenn Miller Orchestra Christmas albums. The US Air Force Airmen of Note has done some great Christmas stuff. I enjoyed a lot of their Cool Yule album--I particularly like their version of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." As a side note, there's a lot of great music available from the various Air Force bands available at this link. Some of the albums are available for download, too. | |||

"The Christmas Album" featuring Virgil Fox on the pipe organ. Two of the tracks feature a soprano Louise Natale, and they are awesome. "The Virgin's Slumber Song" by Max Reger is worth the price of the album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnvdcCm2WLY flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

It seems like besides the Peanuts soundtracks, Vince Guaraldi has been pretty much forgotten except by a few music nerds and jazz lovers. It’s really a shame, he wasn’t just a great pianist, his compositions and arrangements were so unique and creative. I find his work really compelling. | |||

I should hope so, as he (co-)wrote the song. | |||

I dont have a favorite album but my favorite song is the duet of Bing Crosby and David Bowie performing the Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth. Let all Men know thee, but no man know thee thoroughly: Men freely ford that see the shallows. Benjamin Franklin | |||

Another for Christmas Eve and Other Stories - Trans Siberian Orchestra. Terrific! Especially while biking. | |||

| Gloom, despair and agony on me.  |
Not an album but how about Dream Theater’s cover of O Holy Night. | |||

Merry Christmas Darling is a Christmas favorite of mine. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” | |||
