I Know It's Early

I understand that it's the middle of September.  Really, I do.

But there's a lot of work that goes into running a Christmas music station (which lives HERE for anyone who might be interested). 

Fridays are my catch-up days, where I make sure I've answered all emails, am up-to-date on forthcoming releases (new, rumored and imaginary), and add new music that's already been released, or has been sent to me by thoughtful and considerate singers and bands (and their management).

Our on-air library is just shy of 7000 songs, which I'm sure it will hit long bef.ore we get to October.  Possibly by next week.

Anyway, that's the long reason for today's playlist, which is my Christmas List (kind of like my own private Sounds of Christmas).  It certainly gets me in the spirit as I work on all this!

J.P., Chrissie and the Fairground Boys "Christmas Soon"
Sheryl Crow "The Christmas Song"
Huey Lewis and the News "Winter Wonderland"
Mulberry Lane "Christmas In The Car"
Jim Croce "It Doesn't Have To Be That Way"
B.B. King "Christmas Celebration"
Sarah Brightman "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day"
David Foster "Carol Of The Bells"
Bob Dylan "Silver Bells"
Frankie Lymon "It's Christmas Once Again"
Jethro Tull "Ring Out Solstice Bells"
The Marcels "Merry Twist-mas"

Other than Lisa, who shares my office, I'm not forcing this on anyone else, so don't yell at me for listening to Christmas music in September!
