Christmas Music 2008 - Ten-Pack (Part 6)



Let's continue with our run of Christmas music. I still have lots and lots of links to give out so I am continuing in the list format. Let me know (in the comments) if you have any trouble with this format.



DooWopDaddyO's Christmas-Mix 2008
(posted at TwilightZone!)

Excellent compilation of classic Doo-Wop Christmas tunes. I recognized a few of them but most of them were pretty new to me. Very highly recommended.

The Year Without a Santa Claus - Narrated by Boris Karloff
(posted at Way Out Junk)

This was a special premium given out to employees of some long lost company. This is also the story that became the animated tv special that we all know and love.

Christmas Seals Show (Radio) - 1951
(posted at Rand's Esoteric OTR)

Jack Smith and Margaret Whiting's variety show.

The Dangerous Christmas of Red Riding Hood

8 Bit Peoples - The 8 Bits of Christmas
(posted at Dr. Forrest's)

8 bit (Atari/Commodore 64/etc.) Christmas music that is surprisingly good. Note: I didn't really say good, just much better than I expected.

Los TNT - Navidad
(posted at FaLaLaLaLa)

Nice Spanish Christmas music.

Flash Cadillac - Ghost of Christmas Past
(posted at TwilightZone!)

Classic Rock and Roll style holiday tunes.

More Christmas Disco

Yikes, how many Christmas Disco albums can there be?

Various Artists - Hillbilly Holiday
(posted at Dr. Forrest's)

Country/Western (is there really a difference?). I actually kind of like some of the songs on this one.

Nashville Guitars - Christmas Classics

More country themed elevator style Christmas music.
