Happy holidays to you all. I thought I'd give you some CD recommendations if you're kind of stumped or may not know exactly what's out there to choose from. I'm a soul music and jazz fan, so my selections will be coming primarily from those genres and range from contemporary artists to some of the legends who recorded fine product in my opinion. Here's a list of 12 of the best that I think will keep you satisfied from beginning to end, in no particular order, but the first two are definitely tops on my list.
1. "Snowflakes" - Toni Braxton (Gets my vote for the sexiest Christmas CD ever!)
2. "Merry Christmas" - Mariah Carey (This is gospel, pop, and everything in between!)
3. "Christmas, Love and You" - Will Downing (Another sensual take for the holidays)
4. "Christmas Fantasy" - Anita Baker (Anita's jazzy vocals go well with these tunes)
5. "One Family" - Kelly Price (Kelly brings the soul to Christmas)
6. "Christmas" - Kirk Franklin and the Family (If you need some contemporary gospel)
7. "Playboy's Latin Jazz Christmas: A Not So Silent Night" - Various Artists
(Contemporary latin rhythmic takes on classic holiday songs - Divine!)
8. "Jackson 5 Christmas Album" - The Jackson 5 (Classic!)
9. "A Christmas Gift for You From Phil Spector" - Various Artists
(Doo-Wop at its best)
10. "The Original Soul Christmas" - Various Artists (Soul music at its best)
11. "A Charlie Brown Christmas"- Vince Guaraldi Trio (Another classic!)
12. "Christmas Jollies" - The Salsoul Orchestra (A disco classic!)
