If you're not going to follow the link to listen to it, at least check the playlist. The first half of the program is Christmas-themed - but it's sure not the stuff you normally hear at this time of year!
Somewhere in that lot is "Little Saint Nick" by The Beach Boys. Ye gods, they made even the most ordinary song sound magical. Right from the opening bars I knew who it was, even though I don't think I have ever heard that particular BB song before.
You probably knew the Beach Boys did a Christmas album, but did you know the Turtles did a Christmas song? Or Paul Revere and the Raiders also did a Christmas album?
listened to the first half of the podcast bob_32,
I had never heard that Turtles song before, thanks.
and the Presley one, well, I own it, I don't like it, one of only a couple his yuletide songs I don't like.
