Comments of recommendations on Xmas music

Two words...JOHN FAHEY.

Thank you for your comments. I purchased the Blind Boys CD, it is very good. Also purchased the Alligator record Genuine Houserocking Christmas, this just was released.

Besides The Blind Boys (which is excellent), new this year is a Moody Blues disc "December" and a Jethro Tull (can't recall the title). My personnal favs are more traditional though, A Robert Shaw Christmas, Angels On High (Telarc) and Christmas Night, Carols of the Nativity by The Cambridge Singers and John Ritter (Collegium).

If you like swing style music, I think you will like this. It spends a lot of time in our CD player over the Holidays. I also gave it as gift, and the recepiant loved it.

Also, Arron Neville's Soulful Christmas is very good as well.

Regards.

Big_ed, did you forget to tell us the swing disc's name? If you like Jimmy Buffet, he's got a Christmas disc that's got some fun numbers ("Ho Ho Ho and a Bottle of Rum").
