Mockingbird Christmas 08 Playlist

This year for our Christmas playlist, I asked my good friend Steve Carey to curate. The man is such an expert on Christmas-related music that he runs a blog on the subject, called 25 Songs Of Christmas: An Advent Calendar For Your Ear. Go there now! It will crack you up, blow your mind, and get you deep in the Xmas spirit. And then check out the INCREDIBLE playlist he came up with for us:
