Thank you Dude!

Just about time for me to start playing my Randy Travis and Kenny&Dolly xmas songs!

Thank you, Dude.

Updated links, following content removal by YouTube.

Love this!!

I've updated the links in the first post, due to the ongoing issue of YouTube removing content.

Feel free to post your favorites, too, since my music/movie/television interests are rather narrow. Mostly, it's just the old stuff that I like, with a few exceptions.

Astro, I hope you enjoy the Vince Guaraldi tunes, if you haven't already started listening to them.

I haven't yet, (edit, yes I have !) but now I have an easy link, thanks. The best compilation of old school piano/jazzy x-mas songs ever.

Many people may not be aware of his name, but surly will know/remember his charlie brown x-max song variations, and covers of those heard on the radio, in stores, and restaurants all over North America this time of year.

I saw Christmas With the Cranks for the first time the other night. I didn’t really like it, but it did have me laughing out loud more than once.

I liked frosty more than Rudolph that’s for sure!
