Christmas Music and Audiophiles?


I personally really enjoy listening to Christmas music. I find that when it's done well it can be better than just about any other types of music. I even listen to it from time to time throughout the year.

Are there any audiophile Christmas Albums that are worthly of your dedicated stereo listening systems or do you only play Christmas music on your whole house systems as background music?

What are you favorites?

One of my personal current favorites is the Canadian Tenors Christmas album. I have five more Christmas CDs on the way to enhance this upcoming season.

Why is there so much crap Christmas music?

At any rate, may I recommend an LP? Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs MFLS 1-135 "A Jolly Christmas from Frank Sinatra". Oh, I know, Sinatra is not to everyone's taste. But if you enjoy his singing, this one is a must have. Joyeux Noel.
Now that I'm thinkin' about it, the Pogues "Fairytale of New York" from their album "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" begins:

"It was Christmas in the drunk tank......" And kind of goes down hill from there. Probably my favorite.
