Tommy Sands at Christmas
Many years friends ask about favorite Christmas songs.
I name two every year.
Christmas in the Trenches by John McCutcheon
The Rebel Jesus by Jackson Browne
This year I add, Like the First Time It’s Christmas Time by Northern Ireland’s Tommy Sands.
It is another song that speaks of the hope and possibility and peace of the season.
See you along the Trail.
Christmas songs
Two Friars and a Fool looked at “Christmas songs that are actually good” yesterday. They tend to focus on songs used in worship services. Their lists include a shout-out to the Chieftain’s version of St. Stephen’s Day Murders.
How about you? What Christmas songs speak to you?

Christmas music 2012
Every year about this time, I post about Christmas music. Here I go again.
I like Christmas music. I manage to refrain from playing it on my iPod until Advent begins. Once that first Sunday of preparation and waiting dawns – away I go!
This year, after attending the Bring Leonard Peltier Home in 2012 Concert that he co-hosted with Pete Seeger, I purchased my first Harry Belafonte CD – a CD of Christmas music. I had known of Belafonte’s incredible commitment to social justice. Now, through the lens of Christmas, I appreciate him as an artist.“Christmas in the Trenches” by John McCutcheon
“The Rebel Jesus” by Jackson Browne
How about you? What music speaks to you at Christmas?
See you along the Trail.
Christmas music
We hear Christmas music everywhere. We have heard it since before Thanksgiving – we often rush the season.
Some Christmas music is certainly vapid and insipid. Fortunately, much of it is profound and moving.
My friend Shannon recently posed the question on her Facebook page:
If you were to record a holiday album, what 2 songs would you include? (traditional or current)? And no “Grandma got run over by a Reindeer”
Many come to mind, but the two I would choose are:
“Christmas in the Trenches” by John McCutcheon
“The Rebel Jesus” by Jackson Browne
How about you? What two songs would you include?
See you along the Trail.
