Day 7 - from my childhood
Run DMC - Christmas in Hollis
Well, I'm having to stretch the rules a bit here as I won't finish the challenge due to a. going away for Christmas and b. not having enough Xmas records. This is one of my favourite Xmas songs and I guess it's on an EP but the whole thing is not Christmas (hope it's ok). Not sure I was aware of this as an 8-year-old but I've loved it for a long time - and the other songs on here aren't too shabby either.

Day 6 - Oldest
The Three Suns - A Ding Ding Dandy Christmas
This is an original from 1959. This is actually my third oldest, I think. Oldest recording is Bing Crosby, which I already used. I'm saving second oldest for the next day. Also, my version of the Elvis Christmas album is a 70s issue with songs from '66 and '70 tacked on, so I disqualified it. I believe the rest are from '57.
This is a really interesting and fun album I don't think most people have heard. The write up on the back is pretty hilarious:

Day 7 - Childhood
The De Paur Chorus - Calypso Christmas
My mom always plays this Christmas morning. I need to get a better copy, this one is pretty rough. She has the better one I found. To Discogs I go.

Day 8 - It's not Christmas until I play...
20 Christmas Carol's from St George's Chapel
I somehow used to be a chorister so these carols are somewhere deep inside me. This record feels to me more purely like Christmas than any other. Spun it while decorating Gingerbread today only for a 4 year old to scratch In The Bleak Midwinter
O Come All Ye Faithful my favourite of all.

Day 8 - It isn't Christmas until I play....
Khruangbin - Christmas Time is Here
I usually kick off my holiday listening every year with a Charlie Brown Christmas, but since we used that on Day 4, I'll go with an alternate version of my favorite Christmas song.

Elvis' Christmas Album
Kind of a hard category for me but I'm sure this is what my wife would pick, so I went with it.

Not Christmas until I play this one. Love skiing too, so there’s that. The snowflake effect makes it look especially cool.
This is Day 8 - It’s not Christmas Until...
I hear Evie’s “Come On Ring Those Bells”

I think I'm missing a country Christmas album. I used to have the Willie Nelson - Pretty Paper, but either it was in the stack that went to goodwill or I left it at my Mom's last year and it is in her storage unit.
