The Men that Make My Christmas





These are the men that are making it for me this Christmas. So smooth, so classic and so darn good looking. What are you listening to this season?

    Chris Isaak Christmas? Why didn't I know about this? I love him - must get it!

    I'd have to listen to it in the car or my sewing room, though. No one else in my family can stand his crooning. They don't know what they're missing!

    Simone,

    Love the album covers as much as the music inside. Give me Slim any old Christmas!

    Love Chris Isaak didn't know he had a christmas album, will be tracking this one down. His voice is so suited to our climate, he cools things down even though he is HOT (to steal my kids terminology). Will keep an eye out for some decorations for you Kristen has a hard time parting with his, hope you are having a lovely day, cheers Katherine

    Simone I just bought Chris Rea's CD and I cannot get enough of it. Love his deep voice and there is not one bad song on the whole CD.

    Good choice. Elvis and Christ Isaak are also my favorite singers for Christmas. If I listen these albums the Christmas atmosphere is immediately here. But last years I'm used to listen also little bit modern stuff but these are classics and I can't imagine Christmas atmosphere without them.

    Take care,
    Elli

    This year I am nuts about The Moody Blues! I am so hooked on listening to them!
    But I have my old favorites too like Dean Martin and Perry Como!
    All the best,

    LOVE Elvis and gotta get me a Chriss Issak Chrissy album... can't believe the heavenly gift you have just bestowed! So far this year my listening has been a Phil Spector Christmas album called A Christmas Gift For You with lots of Ronnettes and the Crystals and not a hint of cheese.

    I love the Home Alone 2 soundtrack and anything by Andy Williams. I also just bought and love, Straight No Chaser. I just wrote about them, they are the acapella group from Indiana University - and they are all young and cute!!!

    I'm a Bing Crosby fan for Christmas songs! xxxx

    i chuckle as i write this but i either enjoy holiday oldies, like the boston pops or ray conniff (!?), 80s hits like christmas rapping, classics like the nutcracker, and then there's the beach boys. a pretty eclectic mix! LOL

    Oh yeah! I also love Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Nat King Cole. However, I truly prefer instrumentals like Mannheim Steamroller, Trans Siberian Orchestra, and George Winston. Music by any of these truly put me in the Christmas spirit...

    Hugs,
    Jane
