October 9 - Xmas news


I was searching Google for upcoming Christmas albums and found this quote from some new age guy:

In 1984, after selling 500,000 Fresh Aire albums, I wrote my first Christmas album. I was told by retailers that I shouldn't do one because it would be perceived that I was out of ideas. Everybody's notion of Christmas music at the time was the $2.99 albums out there. It was all the same: some artist singing a Christmas carol. But I said, what if you did Christmas music with a little class, using classical music? Now, 23 million copies later, the No. 2 Christmas artist behind us is Elvis Presley, with 16 million.
