.. they can still surprise you by having good taste.

from an email she sent me this morning..

... The CD I really want more than anything right now is the debut CD by a chic
named Alicia Keys (soul, R&B type music, but she's got a couple songs
crossed over and climbing the pop charts right now -- Fallin', and another
I can't remember the title right now), or the CD that Sade came out with
last year in Nov. or Dec. (can't remember title of that either right now).
I do not think that you would be able to locate and burn these entire CDs
('cause of copyright stuff) though.

So in the alternative a nice compilation of Xmas music would be great:
Definitely need Elivis' Blue Christmas, Bing Crosby's White Christmas, and
I think also by him, but maybe not I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas, Amy
Grant's Grown up Christmas List, Anything gospel Christmasy from Aretha
Franklin, Patty LaBelle, and Whitney Houston, and anything Christmasy from
1950's/1960's Motown groups like The Drifters, The Four Tops, The Spinners,
etc., you could also throw in Randy Travis and Trisha Yearwood Christmas
songs and by Dolly Parton I want her song White Candy Christmas, and if you
have room any new pop (but not Britney, or Boy bands) Christmas recordings
that you think I would like. Please mix it up so I don't have all the
music of one type and then all the music of another type -- you know so it
has some highs and lows and blends nicely. Also absolutely NO Jingle Bell
Rock, Rockin' Around the Xmas Tree, or I Saw Mama Kissin' Santa Claus junk
Xmas music, thanks!! ...
