What is your favorite christmas album? - davemchine - 12-15-2014
We are in the thick of christmas wrapping and last minute shopping. What album keeps your christmas cheer going? I can think of two. If I want to hear my HIFI shine I go for David Lanz Christopher's dream . Wow https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/cristoforis-dream...re-envisioned/id590654283 . If I want to dance like a middle aged man who doesn't know how to dance then I go for The Ventures Christmas Album, specifically the Sleigh Ride song, https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-ventures-christmas-album/id715549494 .
So, what are your favorite christmas albums?

Not an album, but I love the way The Temptations do "Silent Night". It was free on iTunes store a few years ago.

Here's another vote for The Ventures. Discovered it when I saw a band play it all the way through a few years ago.

I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas - Gayla Peevy.
Not an album, just a song, cracks me up every time.

This is a single song, not an album.
“NBC ran a comedy-drama show for one season back in 2006 called Studio 60. One episode featured a group of displaced-by-Hurricane-Katrina New Orleans jazz musicians playing O Holy Night. Hauntingly beautiful.
NBC put up a link for folks to download the song shortly after that episode aired. Don’t know if the official NBC link is still active. You can find a link here:

"A Charlie Brown Christmas" by the Vince Guaraldi Trio. The only part I don't like is where the cast of the show starts singing "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing". I just skip to the next song.
