Comment:

This is the second in four volumes of musical Christmas cards sent from various AotM mixers to me and back with a song in reply. There were so many wonderful thoughts accompanying the songs, but I found the story behind Steven's (SAG) pick very interesting. It has to do with an annual holiday display in western Pennsylvania organized each year by a blind couple.

Once again thanks to all for sharing a song with me and for participating in the spirit of community here at AotM.

In the words of Louisa May Alcott: "The rooms were very still while the pages were softly turned and the winter sunshine crept in to touch the bright heads and serious faces with a Christmas greeting."

looks better than volume 1 if that is possible.

Wonderful, if not quite as good as volume 1. Of course, I am slightly biased toward that volume. :)

And I am biased towards this one. Adam was God's first son, so I guess the Bob track is on-topic.

Chris Stamey and the Raveonettes are favorites here, and Christmas In Hollis is a must as well.
