Wouldn't be X'mas without Nat singing.... [/list:u]

Absolutely,

Nat King Cole and Bing Crosby are must for me for Christmas. Also, Harry Connick, Jr. is surprisingly good.

Is she sleeping here?

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 have seen the cartoon twice, but it has been awhile, and I wouldn't mind seeing it again. ("A Charlie Brown Christmas" first aired in 1965).

Vince Guaraldi was the piano behind Schroeder for all of the Charlie Brown animated features.

'Christmas - The Players' (Manzanera and MaKay present)
Rkyodisc RCD20125

a compilation from Phil and Andy of Roxymusic with all the traditional Christmas music done by traditional English Busker musicians. A great CD but near impossible to find.

Elvis Christmas Album
Rat Pack Chritmas Album (who says the Rat Pack and Christmas don't go together? Just got this last year - lots of fun).
Moody Blues - December Snow (a lot better than you might think)
Radio City Music Hall Presents: Songs of Christmas (wifes choice)

I've also made a couple of CD compilations that get spun quite a bit around the holidays. They've got lots of classics - White Christmas, Rudolph (Dean Martin), Happy Xmas (John & Yoko), Burle Ives, etc. It even has ELP's I Believe in Father Christmas on it...
