The Perfect Thanksgiving
11.24.11 by Q3
You have it all planned. The perfect menu. The good tablecloth and napkins. Stemware. Flowers. It is perfect!
Soon your family and friends will descend upon you. But, wait, I think you have forgotten something! What about Thanksgiving music???
Now it would be perfect if Adam had really put together a surprise album just for us of Thanksgiving music. It would give us all a way to celebrate the holiday and be properly entertained. Plus, imagine how many unsuspecting dinner guest would here the holiday music and say, “Who is that great singer? I really like the sound of his voice.”
OK, if Adam did put out a Thanksgiving album, it would have a much classier cover than on today’s news banner but this was just for fun! And we all know that he has been hard at work on his NEXT album, “Trespassing” to put out a Thanksgiving album.
So, to fill the gap, here are some of my favorite Thanksgiving albums all available from Amazon. And all available as MP3 downloads! Yes, even if you forgot to pick up your holiday tune, you can quickly download enough Thanksgiving music to fill an entire evening. Play it loud enough and you won’t have to listen to anyone!
Thanksgiving: A Windham Hill Collection
Various Artists - New Age | Format: Audio CD
Thanksgiving generally is a pleasant and likeable affair. Its features include a charming, gently propulsive take on the traditional piece "Allelujah" by Celtic harpist Lisa Lynne; a delicate rendering of "Amazing Grace" by John Doan on a 20-string harp guitar; and a church-ready version of "We Gather Together" by a trio of Paul McCandless (oboe), Philip Aaberg (piano), and Michael Manring (bass). A midalbum three-song stretch, though--from the heavy stringing (cello, violin, guitar) of William Coulter and Barry Phillips to R. Carlos Nakai's flute soliloquy to a saxophone meditation by Paul Winter--lingers overly long in a melancholy state. Later, a thoughtful harmonica outing by former Lovin' Spoonful member John Sebastian aims for Americana yet delivers more spaghetti Western. Still, the album ends with pieces by Will Ackerman and George Winston--and what could be more classic than that? --Terry Wood

Postscript: The Perfect Thanksgiving Dinner
All you really need for the perfect Thanksgiving dinner is a feast made out of basic foods, family and/or friends and/or some kind strangers, and the willingness to actually say thanks for all the good things in life. It is the perfect time for me to stop a moment and say “thank you” to everyone at Adamtopia for making my life glittier and golden.
So, let me simply say…..
