Day Three – OK, confession time: I really hate Christmas songs. But after you start plowing through them and you hear one that doesn’t pop up on the radio about every five minutes, it gets kinda fun listening to some of them. I said SOME of them. So, to keep this 30 days thing from growing too tedious, here’s a holiday stocking of some random tunes that caught my ear today. Thanks to our L.A. correspondent Randy Fuller for compiling these on a mix CD about two or three years ago.
