Figuring out the music for a holiday party is tough now that nobody but Dwight Yoakam and R&B singers puts out Christmas albums and everybody's heardChristmas Becomes Electric,Yuletide Disco, that Phil Spector Christmas album, anything by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, and Gary Hoey'sHo Ho Hoeya million times to death. Playing non-Christmas music is a pretty good option if you enjoy cop-outs, but those of us who know what we're doing are going with thiscompilation of Xmas favorites by the Dream Scene, who are either buds of, share members with, or are the same people as Athens nutbarsQuiet Hooves(the website's confusing). That and a tasteful smattering of Jingle Dogs.
