Two hours of pure twang from Bashful Brother Oswald.

 

[huntertrw]

Bing Crosby and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow - what a combination!

 

[AcesAndEights]

I’m a sucker for Celtic Holiday music this time o’ year.

I'm not a fan of Barry Manilow; however, having said that, this version with K.T. Oslin is definitive!

 

[Blue ridge smoke]

JJ Cale

 

[edger]

I’m a sucker for Celtic Holiday music this time o’ year.

I’m sure you would enjoy this: The Chieftains- The Bells of Dublin.
Lots of guests from rock and folk genres!

My wife is a big Manilow fan. I took her to a concert once for her birthday, and I have to admit that the man had a lot of hits, can sing, and he puts on a great show.

Charlie Parr - Last of the Better Days Ahead

One of the most genuine songwriters and players around. Very nice guy, too. Plays 12 string and resonator guitars. His music is a constant comfort and inspiration for those who know him, and his live shows are always delivered with everything he's got. Highly recommended.

Christmas song from Pink Floyd:
"Shout that as a cheery Christmas greeting, Alan"
"Yeah, shout that one out, right?"
Turkey and sausages and Christmas pud
"Have another helping John!"
Oh, I don't think I could
Christmas parcels under the tree
None for you and six for me!

As good as it gets:

I post this each year because it's so good.
Greg Lake and Ian Anderson, "I Believe in Father Christmas"

[judcole]

I started my listening today with this one.

Then this one:

And now

This is one of the first two Christmas albums my late wife and I purchased together,

 

[kcghost]

I am listening to Anne Murray's Christmas album released in the late 80's.

 

[beefeater33]

All you guys over 50............... you know you like this one........... just admit it, it's ok.........

Listening to vinyl tonight, and I’ve got to say… The Band’s The Big Pink is about the most underrated gem of its time. So many hits, so many songs that have worked their way into our cultural literacy for an album hardly ever discussed. I highly recommend that you spin this one and take a load off… Annie.
