Traditional Rock, Pop Rock, Rap, Soul, and R&B are just some of the most popular sounds of Top 40 radio since Bill Haley and the Comets Rocked Around The Clock back in 1955. This page covers some of the acts from the 1970s on in most cases. Christmas music can have traditional rockers such as Queen, Elton John, George Througood, The Kinks, Bruce Springsteen, and Dave Edmunds, soul and rap such as Mariah Carey, Rum D.M.C., Whitney Houston, and others; modern rockers such as Sting, Waitresses, U2, Smashing Pumpkins, and many others. This is just a few tapes I own, and there are many others out there with whole albums by a certain act as well. Check the bins. Like, how many versions of Jingle Bells do you really need to have in your collection?
These are the contents and reccommendations to adding to your Xmas tape collection. Most are demented stuff, but even the pop mainstream artists are demented by simply doing a Xmas record. Some of the cuts were demented enough to get played on Dr. D.
