The Mythical Hank Williams Christmas Album

el hombre malo's picture

I love Christmas music - Elvis Presley, Aimee Mann, Low, Dr John, The Roches, Evan Johns & The H-bombs ... One night in the pub while discussing the daftness of it with a similarly-afflicted friend, we were talking about the Christmas albums we'd like to hear.

We realised that Hank Williams missed the chance, but would have been a great candidate - and we started concocting the titles of songs that should be on it.

This was some years ago, and I can only remember a handful :

Twinkle, Twinkle, Lonesome Star

Christmas Eve In Jail

My Dad Calls Another Man Sonny

Daddy's Drinking Our Christmas


Can the Massive suggest any other pining seasonal tunes that would fit?

My Dad calls Another Man Sonny

Surely the original My Son Calls Another Man Daddy would make the perfect lament for Joseph?
I once spent a Christmas afternon listening to Hank Williams 40 Greatest Hits. I don't recommend it for engendering festive cheer.
