Re: Flex's 25 Days of Christmas (Songs)
that Sharon Jones disc is so, so good. One of the best holiday releases in recent years, for sure.
25 Days of Christmas (Songs) - Day 16
The Brian Setzer Orchestra - Santa Drives a Hotrod
Original release: Dig That Crazy Christmas
Year: 2005
From BSO's second holiday offering. Somehow, Setzer manages to release consistently fun and cool seasonal albums and songs for, like, years on end. I saw his live Christmas show last year and it was an absolute blast. The dude know how to Rock and Roll with Santa, for sure.

Next time we get a beer together, Bob, we're going to have to talk about how we're so good at Christmas music.
25 Day of Christmas (Songs) - Day 18
Joe Pesci - If It Doesn't Snow on Christmas
Original release: Vincent Laguardia Gambini Sings Just For You
Year: 1998
From the legendary concept album of the late 90s, this will surely warm the hearts of even the frostiest Doctor Medulla.

No sign of Greg Lake yet?
Is there a history of Christmas songs charting in the US like there is over here? I only say that because Christmas songs like "When a Child Is Born" by Johnny Mathis and "Last Christmas" by Wham were smashes in the UK but did nothing in the States.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Indeed, and we wouldnt have time to fully cover all the other things we're so good at.
VT is a great place in the summer. Winter too if you go for that sort of thing.

Another selection from the excellent Christmas A Go-Go comp. Garage rockin' take on Dickens. Can't go wrong.

And here's the two-fer.
25 Days of Christmas (Songs) - Day 21
The Chesterfield Kings - Hey Santa Claus
Original release: Christmas with the Kranks
Year: 2004
How the fuck did this soundtrack produce so much good Christmas music? The mind boggles.

Tom Waits, "Silent Night" and "Christmas Card From a Hooker in Minneapolis" (1987 or so, I reckon).

Love the Waits cut.
25 Days of Christmas (Songs) - Day 22
The Electric Prunes - Jingle Bells
Original release: Little Steven's Underground Garage Presents Christmas A Go-Go
Year: 2008
Let's close out the year leaning into the Christmas A Go-Go cuts. 2017 sucked in so many ways, but maybe it can at least bring us a garage rock Christmas.
