At the moment I am listening to some Dean Martin Christmas CD. What do you guys like?

The lack thereof.

I second that!

Haha.... I would argee most of it sucks really bad. Playing it on crap boxes never helps either. However guys with powerful voices like Dean Martin and Elvis make it worth listening to, for the holiday spirit, and only.

I love Christmas music. We listen to The Holiday music station on Dish all day and it definitely contributes to the spirit of the holiday. What can I say... the music, the lights, the smell of the Christmas tree all make me happy. I can't wait for Christmas day.

I like the new Diana Krall Christmas CD.

I didn't have to think very long on this one...

"A Charlie Brown Christmas"

featuring the incredibly tasteful melodic phrasing of a great jazz pianist,

Vince Guaraldi.

Now that's Christmas, baby!

Do you like the Cartoon, been awhile since I have seen it. I had no idea the soundtrack or what ever was done by Vince Guaraldi. I however, I think, just pick up a Vinyl album by Vince Guaraldi, right now it resides in my uncleaned section.

I just saw Cantus performing their Christmas program last week- definately amazing.

I just saw a tid-bit of Ray Charles and some New York church choir; unfortunately it was on a poor setup so I have no comment on how good it actually was. I might have to fire it up on my laptop as I have my speakers with me, and receiver, while I am home for break.
