What album do you play over the holidays?

For me it will always be Beatles White Album because my friend got it, along with a Hot Wheels race track set up for Christmas 1968 when we were in 6th grade and then in the first week of January 1969, Boston got hit by a major snow storm that gave us another week off of snow days so we listened and listened to that album over and over.

Okay, your turn...

"Austin Rhythm & Blues Christmas" with The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Lou Ann Barton, Paul Ray, Charlie Sexton, Willie Nelson, Angeli Strehli and others. The perfect antidote for the usual syrupy Christmas music you'll hear at your relatives' house.

Another great reminder, Jackson Browne. He is by far my favorite of the L.A. Laurel Canyon crowd, a really, really good songwriter, and fine singer. He has also always had a great band. I sure wish he hadn't let his political/social causes take over his lyrical content, but that's artists for ya! Too literal and "sincere", ya know? I felt the same way about Lennon in the 70's. At least Jackson didn't put his wife in his band, and call her Mommy ;-).
