Christmas albums
 
I can only think of two worthwhile Christmas albums - Low's, and the Phil Spector one. Are there any others in existence, or am I destined to have those two on repeat play every Christmas Day for the rest of my life?

apart from low, the beach boys and jackson five the rest can all fuck right off.

so far i have avoided all xmas songs this year.

although an annoying woman at the other end of the office has just started to play some as i type this.

Nat King Cole - "The Christmas Song"

Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - "Christmas w/ The Miracles"

etc, etc...There's actually some decent x-mas albums out there. & don't forget the legendary Charlie Brown christmas music. A real smooth jazz style x-mas album is always good.

What about the Sonics?

What was that record called? Donīt believe in Christmas or something like that.
with Santa Clause and The Village Idiot on it
itīs pretty good

I haven't heard them.

There are two that I own: The Perry Como Christmas Album and Christmas With the Salvation Army (strange title, I always think) by the Salvation Army International Staff Band. The latter is my favourite.

(it's an old vinyl thing, so it might not be available anymore, but I could tape it if you're interested).

None. Listen to Hood's Cold House. It's a complete winter album.
