Merry Christmas, Baby

Hey folks! 

Hope you are off from work, have your shopping done (and most of the cooking wrapped up) and have your rear end in something cushy and your feet propped up on something comfortable...basically, assume position for opening presents!

Both me and a few friends have been wanting to listen to something different this Christmas year and on Taza and Husband's blog, she recommends the Hey, It's Christmas compilation.  It's a different sort of sound for traditional Christmas songs and I absolutely dig it.  We stuck this on during our holiday ornament exchange at work last week (and then rocked out to some Motown Christmas after that).

If your town/city puts out a Christmas CD like Jackson does (Merry Christmas, Jackson - Volume 3), then I recommend that as another option to add to the shuffle.  It's been a lot of fun to listen to our fellow friends and musicians' take on classic Christmas songs.

Paste Magazine has 50+ Free Christmas mp3's which has a good variety of songs from indie bands and artists.  Love it!  They are easy to download and a great addition.

We're about to get on the road to Dallas and I can't wait to pop them in for an extended listen.  But we'll still have some standbys in tow, too!  (Harry Connick, Jr., Charlie Brown Christmas, Ray Charles and more)

No matter what or how you celebrate,
I hope you have the happiest (and safest) of holidays!!
