I cant decide if it's Steven Colberts "The greasts Christmas gift" or Oxhorn's "Christmas for geeks"

This is just a single by King Diamond from 1985. He is my favorite artist.

The best Christmas album ever, without question, was Bob Rivers' second Twisted Christmas album, White Trash Christmas. It was, after all, the album that brought us the classic, "I Am Santa Claus"...

My pick is Phil Spector's A Christmas Gift For You released in 1963. This is the Pop Music Christmas Album that influenced all other Pop Music Christmas Albums!! ! It features many of the artists that Phil produced during that time including Darlene Love and The Ronettes.

I was wondering if anyone was going to mention Phil Spector's Christmas album. I don't own it, but I do like his sound a lot.

Of course, he was recently convicted of murder.
In light of that, I wonder if radio stations are going to give him the Gary Glitter treatment from now on.

My favorite Christmas albums are by John Rutter and the Cambridge Singers. I for some reason have always liked the sound of choirs at Christmas time.

Merry Christmas by Mariah Carey is a great one as well since I listen to it all the way through today.
