Monday December 22, 2008 Playlist

As promised my show was a two hour extravaganza of Christmas Music! Except for the Brazilian Batucada of course. My favorite Christmas CD has got to be "Playboy's Latin Jazz Christmas: A Not So Silent Night". This CD is so good and filled with Christmas songs done Latin-style, I play it all year 'round! I think my three favorite Christmas songs are The Christmas Waltz, I'll Home For Christmas, and The Christmas Song. These are classics and at the top of my list.

The holidays are a time of joy and celebration and music is a part of all holiday celebrations no matter if you celebrate Christmas or another special day. I hope you heard some songs during this show that are now your new favorites.

Happy Holidays!
