On Surviving The Holidays

Don’t get me wrong. I have unconscious warm fuzzies going on in regards to this time of year, just like the next guy. But of all the things that you can’t control about this season, at least there is some comfort knowing that you don’t have to come face to face with your own death via “I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,” or some other equally brain-melting and consistently looped dog shit coming out of the radio and/or you aunt’s home stereo. Here are Christmas albums you can’t deny. Being prepared in this regard pays off every time.

1. Oscar Peterson

2. Nat King Cole

3. Ray Charles

4. James Taylor

5. Bing Crosby

and of course:

The Quintessential.

Others that may be good, but that I’ve not heard include Sinatra’s (if he didn’t have several), Stan Kenton’s, and perhaps your suggestions.
