Each year this time I break open my Christmas Rock notes to get ready for the season. What is your favourite Christmas Rock song?
After all these years, I still get a kick out of Jingle Bell Rock.
A great vocal and some interesting guitar work too.

Check out "Christmas Must Be Tonight" from The Band. It was on their final LP, Islands in 1977. I think it's a great modern style Christmas carol. There is a video on YouTube but it doesn't show a performance. There is also a faster initial run through on the extra tracks for their Northern Lights LP. I had not known about this track until recently since I didn't get the Islands LP back in the day.

Here's a great song from one of my favourite "girl" groups. Ronnie has a great voice.

Scotty: Thank your for one of the most beautiful moments on the RickResource Forum. A potent reminder of the wonders of the universe and that our lifetime in comparison lasts only as long as the tail of a shooting star.

Those are great! I'll add something a little more recent, and speaking of getting the decorations up, I've always liked this video:
