Best Holiday CDs?


Is there such a thing as "audiophile quality" Holiday music? What do you play when friends and family gather to share the spirit of the season?

Steve/Tubegroover - I'll do better. I will ask my borther to burn a copy on his CD-R and mail it to one of you as X-mas present PROVIDED you pass it on to the other one. Let me know if you are interested. Who wants to be first? As for the details - here's the full discography of the group 1. Neri Per Caso - "Le Ragazze" 1995 Easy Records Italiana (distributed by Sony Music). Catalog number ESY 478565 2. Debut album, in Italian, all a cappella. Printed in Holland 2. Neri Per Caso "Strumenti"1996 ESY 48311 2 (Sony/BMG). Second album, some instruments introduced, but mostly percussion and sparingly used. In Italian. Trakc s 4, 6, 7, and 9 are absolutley brilliant (holographic, wrap around soundstaging) 3. Neri Per Caso (no title) 1997. EMI Music Italy EMI 4 93132 0. Interactive CD. My least fave., bu very cool a cappella version of Jamming. Mostly in Italina 4. Neri Per Caso (no title). This is the X-mas album. Need to get it back from my brother for details. Sorry! Released in 1998 and, as far as I know, the only album they did that year.
By the way..apologies for the typos. Life is too short to spell check! ( but I DO know how!)

Alex . this is very kind of you. Look for my email with address Tubegroover you are, as they say, a scholar and gentleman I'll email you when I have disc to send. cheers steve
The Simpsons "Sing the Blues". BMG/Geffen 1990. No holiday songs on this but it is festive for a family/friends gathering and I assume that everyone young and old can relate to the cartoon character's voices that sing the lyrics. Guest musicians include B.B. King, Roger McGuinn, Dr. John, John Sebastian and Tower of Power's horn section. Who knows, you may decide to get out the old Bill Cosby albums after listening to this. Fairly well recorded as well, it sounds good on our setup.
