What is your favorite Christmas single/album?
Merry Xmas almost! Do you have a favorite Christmas recording (single, album, or both)? My two favorite albums are Charlie Brown Christmas by Vince Guarldi Trio and Christmas Album by Herb Alpert & Tijuana Brass.

More solstice, less Xmas for me:
"Let them know it's Christmastime" the original version. Not much I don't like about that one. Phil Collins' best day as a drummer.
The TSO trilogy.
Specifically, though this song. ANd....it's got Alex Skolnick from Testament! Win Win....
I remember buying that album when it came out. I was a teenager, in Australia, and for some reason (well, expensive marketing and a tour) Jethro Tull was all over Melbourne’s radio in ’77. A very very good year for music, for my first year in Oz.
there can be only one ....
This is how it came about:
Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings' new holiday record is pretty jammin.
mine is fairytale of New York by the pogues

Only a few days ago was the 15th anniversary (18 December 2000) of her unfair death. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirsty_MacColl
Wow, cool! I love those too....and the score for Home Alone by John Williams
This has been my favourite christmas single since the 80s, and I ensure I hear it each year.
Cristina — Things Fall Apart (Ze Records 1981)
I generally hate Christmas songs (yes, I know, Scrooge, Humbug!) as they can be so sugary and commercial, but I do have a soft spot for Greg Lake's I Believe In Father Christmas.
James Brown's Funky Christmas deserves a mention. Bootsy Collins Chistmas is 4ever is a lot of fun. There are just too many good ones. Sufjan Stevens put out a set that had like 6 CD's in it. A little windy but good stuff all around.
All time fav is John Denver, Christmas For Cowboys.
The Guaraldi is a given, so I'm going to say "Another Lonely Christmas" by Prince. Not like you'll be able to find it for free, anywhere, to listen to. No one has his material on Internet lockdown like Prince.
Surprised no one has mentioned Santa Baby.
guess I've misjudged you all.
Great picks in here. Enjoying listening through.
Christmas rapping- killer bassline
Baby please come home, or the whole Phil Spector album really
I discovered A Motown Christmas album recently. Best track is My Favorite Things by The Supremes.

The one. The only. Billy Mack.
This Christmas- Donny Hathaway. Christmas Song - Nat King Cole. But, in 16th century Spain, this one:
+1 Always makes me appreciate the simple things in life that really matter.
I like film music like from the last unicorn (but mainly the symphonic parts), "Drei Nüsse für Aschenbrödel" and other things like that.
In my youth it was the thunderdome christmas special lol!
I'll nod in with a runner up:
Christmas In Hollis by RUN-DMC.
Please remember the fantastic Kate Bush from 1979...
A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Spector. Any Christmas album by Bing Crosby. Der Bingle still rules!
"He's the Man with all the Toys",and "Little Saint Nick" from the imagination of Brian Wilson and the mouths of the Beach Boys. 'Run Run Rudolph' from Chuck Berry. Did I mention Sinatra? Is my Baby Boomer showing?
Peanuts Christmas being a given, I'll give my nod to A Very Special Christmas, Vol. I&II.
The Ventures Christmas album for all your surfing Christmas needs
Also John Fahey's Christmas album, I'll always put this one on
