Post the Christmas music you grew up with!

For a lot of us, it just isn't the holidays w/o hearing the renditions of traditional (and not so traditional) Christmas carols. Thanks to YouTube, some of it can be rediscovered and shared. My all-time favorite Christmas album, (that's been around longer than I have), is the Harry Simeone Chorale's Little Drummer Boy/O Bambino. For me there are funny little stories behind a lot of the songs on this album from my childhood, but I won't get into that. Here are 2 of my faves songs from that album:

The Little Drummer Boy:

this one was played over and over when I was a kid at home

of course it was on a 33rpm Lp ... my sister and I found that bumping the speed up to 45 rpms made loretta a little more fun to listen too ...

and this was another one

No one's voice says Christmas to me like Johnny Mathis' does. If I could only listen to one person sing at this time of year, it'd be him.
