What is it with folk celebrating Christmas in November!
In the US, loads of people begin listening to festive music around Thanksgiving. But weâre happy to wait a few more days until youâre ready to share your seasonal favorites.
And make no mistake! I have many
Im as big a fan of Christmas as the next guy (possibly even more so, Christmas is a big thing for my family), but for me part of that is waiting till the time is right.
Starting too early cheapens the whole thing!
My seasonal selection will follow
Excellent! Then weâll have a load of recommendations to share!
Years ago, I had a weekly specialty radio show and would slowly increase the featured Holiday music between Thanksgiving and Christmas until all two hours of my spot were chock-a-block with Crimble jams.
My goal was to never repeat the same exact song twice. That became increasingly difficult over the years. Eventually, people would request something they had heard in the past, and I broke tradition to accommodate those listeners.
Thereâs such an abundance of great holiday music out there. Its sheer popularity means many artists have cut at least a few selections. Even artists you wouldnât expect, like @AceRimmer shared above.
Yes @Dan_Copley! Great recommendation!
This album is wonderful and instantly transports the listener to the dawn of hi-fi Christmas cool! The Ultra-Lounge series has grown to include something like four or five Christmas titles - all of which are must-plays for the holidays!
Yes! The check out the whole ultra lounge series- it is a great way to discover some great 60âs hifi. Reminds me of the reel to reel tapes my dad used to listen to!
Every single Ultra Lounge compilation is in my Roon library - even the streaming-only titles! I love that stuff.
Absolutely - thanks for reminding me - off now to add more Ultra Lounge albums to the collectionâŚ
Here are a few more recommendations for Ultra Lounge fans and sundry lovers of 50s/60s Christmas nostalgia.
So much Christmas music in the collection, but whatâs currently spinning a lot are the new releases of the year âŚ
Thank you for the recommendations @ruediger! Iâll check them out
This is the way!
