Christmas Garland

Spinning on Air | May 18, 2010
An Xmas Extravaganza of sonic ornaments, glittering globes of melody, tinsely tunes, and glowing multi-colored lights of familiar and surprising holiday songs. Drawing from his large library of unusual Christmas recordings, host David Garland unwraps a gift box of Santa scenes, kiddie records, xmas jingles, Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker" reinterpreted by Polygraph Lounge, Moog-synthesized carols, and even some lovely seasonal songs.
