Here's an orchestral favorite of the 30's that was recorded by Kate Smith during the war years. This cover is special because the collaborators capture the passion of that era so effectively from their home offices.

Bump for Xmas covers.

Here's is one I enjoy. Kenny Wayne Shepard covering Rudulph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Happy Holidays everyone!

Caught this last year. Funny how it looks like BJA made his sons learn it to help the boredom.

Don't think this one is a cover but I think of it every time I go to my inlaws for Christmas. Someone always leaves crying.

Andrew Bird is one of the most talented musicians out there. A few years ago he played with orchestras in 4 cities: DC, Indy, KC, and LA. I had a wedding for the KC date but flew to DC to see him with the NSO.

Everyone should see Bird at least once. Incredible.
