Christmas Album of the Week

The Darkest Night of the Year by Over the Rhine

UPDATE: Wow – great minds think alike! The Morning Retort has a post on OTR’s Christmas album and on seeing them recently. (Side note: I saw them at a teeny tiny bar in Philadelphia in the fall I think it was. Linford was cajoled by the crowd into doing an impromptu version of “Jack’s Valentine” here too! It was excellent. By the way, if you think an OTR crowd is well-behaved, try going to see The Innocence Mission in the basement of a Unitarian Church!)

Also, thoughts from TMR on “A Charlie Brown Christmas” which I also watched last night. This is getting weird!
