Here are a few of my favorite holiday albums. I'll post links for YouTube videos wherever possible, but you can always go to Amazon.com for the audio bites.
Classic Vintage Rock 'n' Roll
"A Christmas Gift for You" - Phil Spector.
Back when he was still the Boy Wonder.

Country and/or Bluegrass
"Christmas" Chris Isaak
