Dale and I listened to a couple of our favorite Christmas albums during cocktail hour. We started with Christmas Cornucopia by Annie Lennox. This album is amazing. Annie has taken traditional Christmas carols and added African drumming and an African children's choir to many of the selections. My favorite Christmas carol is See Amid the Winter's Snow and the version of it which is contained here is gorgeous.
Our other favorite is Christmas Spirit by Donna Summer. Her medley of What Child Is This/Do You Hear What I Hear/Joy to the World is glorious. I asked Dale what his favorite Christmas song is and he said O Holy Night. I love that one too and there is a version contained in Christmas Spirit. I first got this album on CD back in 1994. It reminds me of Christmases we spent in our apartment on Fremont Avenue. This one really has become an old favorite.
