Tis the season to be jolly nearly

Ho Ho Ho etc

Here's a couple of suggestions which you may or may not have come across for a yuletide lift

Mulled wine at the ready

Sufjan Stevens 5 yes, 5 cd Christmas Boxed set - this ought to get you in the mood - beautiful

OR try for something completely different

Detektivbyran
Lots of clips on you tube, somewhat bonkers but its touched a nerve with me, they have only 2 releases both of which sound jawdropping, Vibraphone as a lead instrument, the things you come across on the interweb!!!
Highly recommended
