Chaotic Coffee Klatch (tea also available)

Because I hear this takes forever now, I just uploaded my "Christmas Avatar"

Incase it takes a while, here it is:

I was expecting to be defending some of my "less mainstream" choices in seasonal music this weekend at the now cancelled family gathering.

"Santa Baby" ONLY by Eartha Kitt, because she made it clear what Santa was going to get if he delivered the goods.

"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" by Diana Krall because she implies a level of intimacy that borders on obscene with that smoky whisper.

"Christmas in NY" by the Pogues, because, well, because.

"O! Holy Night" by Cartman because while some may be offended, it is what kids see.

Any Christmas stuff by Jimmy Buffett. Not the greatest musician, but DAMN he knows how to have fun.

Brian Setzer, especially his grinding rockabilly version of "Santa Claus is Back In Town"

BB King, especially "Back Door Santa"

Tom Waits. No, not "A Christmas card from a Hooker in Minneapolis" (okay, that one too)...

But this one, which I consider a "Boxing Day Carol". A bar opening that day after Christmas. Its a "Torch Song, written for Piano and Fire Extinguisher"

"Warm Beer and Cold Women"


Here’s a fave of mine that no one has ever heard πŸ™„
