Hope you ALL have the most joyous Christmas ever, that going especially for your families as well,family is the most important thing on this planet.....take it from someone who has next to NO family (luckily my wife's family has "adopted" me as thier own), just make sure and tell your loved ones that they truly ARE loved.......we all wind up in the same place eventually anyway....
I am going to borrow a couple of links from "Paradise of Garage Comps" today, I asked him if it was OK but I got no answer, I'm sure he doesn't care as he is a real cool guy.

I have posted this link before, perhaps last year or the year before, I think it is maybe the greatest of rock Christmas albums of them all, fab stuff from the Pacific Northwest from the Wailers, the Sonics, and the Galaxies:
01 THE SONICS-Santa Claus/02 THE WAILERS-She's Comin' Home/03 THE GALAXIES-Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer/04 THE WAILERS-Christmas Spirit??/THE SONICS-The Villiage Idiot/06 THE SONICS-Don't Believe In Christmas/07 THE GALAXIES-Please Come Home For Christmas/08 THE WAILERS-Maybe This Year/09 THE GALAXIES-Christmas Eve/10 THE WAILERS-The Christmas Song
Also as a bonus here is a link to a fabulous video of the Sonics "Santa Claus", it is fantastic......I have to link it directly to that site ("Paradise"), I'm sure he won't care if I generate him a bit of extra traffic:
