It might be a bit early to be asking about Christmas music but I'm in need of some reccomendations. I love the more traditional stuff by people like Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, etc, but I also love Mariah and Whitney's Christmas albums.
What should I try out this year? What albums are your favourites?

Holly (a day one fan of LeAnn and Trace)
It's only two-sided but there aren't any songs on there I want to fast forward through - I'm even able to put aside my chagrin at the preachiness of Band Aid and War Is Over for the sake of the album overall. And it's pretty much the only Christmas album I'll have these days that's got Gary Glitter's Rock N Roll Christmas on it, which I love
But generally not really a fan of Christmas albums
Looking forward to Leona's 'Christmas with Love' and the EP coming from Kate Nash too.

and I still listen to it at Christmas time now. For me it is the definitive Christmas album.
That's what the old-style Christmas music has got that the brash Christmas pop that you get on Christmas compilations like " That's What I Call Christmas" and the like haven't got..
lush arrangements :)
Jethro Tull - The Cristmas Album
I'm sure Leona Lewis' "Christmas, With Love" will be a cracker of a Christmas album as well.
The Beach Boys Ultimate Christmas album released in 1998 (it has the original 1964 christmas album plus Child of Winter from 1974 and the unreleased 1977 christmas album songs)
The Spector album is class too!
