Hi all --

Looking for suggestions to add to my Christmas Music playlist.

[Doogle]

fellow FReeperette sent it to me in an email...of course, I sent it out and it came to me right away when the request for songs came about......*smiles*

Marty - on the serious side, this is my all-time favorite religious hymn. I cry every time I hear it.

“What Shall We Give to the Babe in the Manger” - Mormon Tabernacle Choir

Try this one....

Blackmore's Night- Christmas Eve

Never heard of them before this year.

Let's try that with a working link, shall we?

Blackmore's Night-Christmas Eve

As you stand in line for a Holiday Grope from your friendly TSA agent, enjoy these new classics...

Sweet Young Thing gazing soulfully at the camera

Well, that's why I like it. ;)

All I Want for Christmas is You.—Vince Vance and the Valiants

[Holen1]

Excellent, oh, and not guilty. :-)

[Arrowhead1952]

Thanks for that link. We heard that group for the first time the other evening. They are great.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Father Christmas - The Kinks

Christmas at Kmart - Root Boy Slim

[Fletcher J]

Ah, “12 Days of Kwanzaa” is an old favorite of mine. LOL

For serious music, Amy Grant has two Christmas albums, either of which are great. The album “Tennessee Christmas” may be the best Christmas album of all time. Be sure to check those out - there are too many good ones on them to single any out.

Also, check out the Vince Guaraldi Trio album (Charlie Brown Christmas). “Christmas Time is Here” with the children’s choir is my favorite.

[Erasmus]

Anything from December by George Winston, depending on your mood.

It’s great! Do yourself a favor and go listen to it.

[Disambiguator]

I have another one to add:

The Mountain Aires Christmas album. Their non-Christmas album is excellent, too.

Have you acquired any new stuff yet?

Have you acquired any new stuff yet?

Thanks for asking! Stuck with a few choice suggestions from FReepers, and am always looking for more:

• In the Bleak Midwinter
• Driving Home for Christmas
• Merry Christmas Wherever You Are
• Celtic Woman Christmas Album
• That Evancho girl was AMAZING -- hadn't heard of her before. And from Pittsburgh, no less!
• Mormon Tabernacle Choir selections - especially the stuff with booming organ. AWESOME
