I need about 3-4 hours worth of music for a Holiday event. I just realized that I do not own any Christmas music!! Can anyone recommend must-have holiday albums?

Brian D'Arcy James- From Christmas Eve to Christmas Morn
Linda Eder- Christmas Stays the Same

I also love all of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra CD's, but I know they're not for everyone.

Also, I don't know what demographic you are playing to but for some of us this synonymous with Christmas. Especially O Little Town of Bethlehem.

These two have a good variety and a lot of the songs I grew up with.

I love the movie soundtrack to Elf. It is very calm and relaxing.

I lived in Georgia my whole life, and last December I moved to Maine. As much as I love my family and friends, I'm only ever homesick for the food. Waffle House conjures up many happy memories. Sorry for the unintentionally nostalgic threadjack...

Ok..back on topic and I will try not to post such large pics!

I second the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Their Christmas Trilogy is the only holiday album (are the only holiday albums?) I allow in my house for the fantastic combination of traditional, rock, and NO CRAPPY POP. o/

I am afraid Amy Grant's Christmas album wouldnake me break down this year. It's my first Christmas away from Tennessee.

Any album/CD with the song "This Christmas" by Donny Hathaway on it.

My personal favorite Christmas song of all time is Kay Starr singing Everybody's Waiting For The Man With The Bag.

I second uncageg on Nat King Cole. As far as I'm concerned, it is THE Christmas album.

Also love the John Denver/Muppet Christmas and Nat King Cole.
