My favorite Christmas CDs are Kathy Mattea "Good News", Sarah McLachlan "Wintersong", and I just got Annie Lennox's new one, "Christmas Cornucopia" which is quite interesting. Both Good News and Wintersong have been played over and over for years at our house.
Wow! My son would be so proud of all of you! Like Peg he would listen to it 24/7 as well as watch Christmas movies! I love it too but I did have to ban the movies until after Halloween! (He has so many it takes that long to see them all.) I love most Christmas music but one of my favorites is the Bing Crosby & David Bowie version of little Drummer Boy. One I truly don't care for was just released this year by The Black Eyed Peas. I saw them perfom it on Oprah and was not impressed. It just doesn't seem right to make the Little Drummer Boy sexy! YIKES! Oh well...each to their own. Here's hoping each of you have a safe and blessed Christmas surrounded by those you love and love you back.

Always love carols-and am enjoying playing them on uke,mando,and fiddle. My fave album is still "The Little Drummer Boy" by the Harry Simone Choral as it brings back memories of wonderful childhood Christmas'. I'm also always looking for newer recordings too-recently discovered "A Scottish Christmas" by Bonnie Rideout and it has traditional songs I've never heard before.
