Your Holiday/Christmas Favorite Recordings

As I sit here enjoying a glass of cab, looking at the decorations that were put up today, watching the snow pile up outside(which must be removed tomorrow), and listening to my favorite Christmas CD - James Galaway's "Christmas Carol", I wonder what wonderful music you decide to dedicate to your tt or cd player this time of year? My top five are; 1. Galways "Christmas Carol" RCA RCD1-588, 2. Vince Guardaldi Trio's "A Charlie Brown Christmas" Fantasy FCD-8431-2, 3. David Grisman's "Acoustic Christmas" Rounder CD 0190, 4. Mannheim Steamroller "A Fesh Aire Christmas" Amercian Gramaphone Records AGCD 1988, and 5. Philadelphia Brass Ensemble "A Festival of Carols in Brass" CBS MK7033.

Oh yes, Happy Holidays to All! I've learned so much from so many here at Agon, and I am deeply appreciative.

Ok, i see the thread i was looking for is gone....so heres two unusaul finds....'An American Christmas' Norman and Nancy blake, Roy Huskey Jr, Vassar Clements, Ronnie McCoury, James Byran. A relaxing authentic traditional take on Christmas, no show boating, just nice.....now, if you can find 'A Christmas Cocktail' by Jaymz Bee and the Royal Jelly Orchestra, your in for a treat. From strait jazz to just plain weird, this CD is a hoot. Good sound too, i love it. Well if i feel better im off to the local Manifest to look for something new, see ya.
