If you’re reading this, you’re in a special club – the RSS-reader club to http://christianross.net. It’s like the “He-Man Woman Haters Club” from the Little Rascals and you get to be Spanky. Welcome and congrats. You won’t actually see this post hit the front page of my site, it’s intentional.
As previously mentioned, it comes with perks. This week, it’s free music. Next week it might be cash.
A couple of jazz tracks for your holiday collection. The first from the 1965 classic, A Charlie Brown Christmas, “Skating” by The Vince Guaraldi Trio. Representing New Orleans with the second track is old “Satchmo” himself, Louis Armstrong, with a track called “Zat You Santa Claus?”
Thanks for subscribing. Enjoy the music. Feel free to email me if you have any you’d like to contribute.

One day in and I’ve already had some great submissions to the show. Still time left to get your favorites sent in. The more the merrier.
Today’s track comes courtesy of my Kansas City dotcomrade Eric Hurst (web | twitter). The man knows his way around some Rails code and has recently launched himself into the freelance world, sign him up quick before his schedule fills.

Christmas tunes
Editor’s note: I did this on another one of my sites last year and it was pretty popular so I thought I’d give it a go here.
I have a decent collection of Christmas music. It’s not huge but I have accumulated some quality tracks here and there over time. Of course I dig the classics by Elvis, Sinatra, Crosby and Ives; but a majority of these will probably be a little more contemporary with names like: Jason Mraz, Damien Rice & Coldplay.
Not sure if I’ll remember/have time to do a song-a-day post but I will try and be as consistent as possible with it.
Tip: I may offer the songs in a variety of different ways – normal blog post, Twitter-only link and/or an RSS-only link might happen as well. I would recommend you subscribe to the RSS feed as well as follow me on Twitter to not miss a single track.
If you have one you think might fit in well with the series, send me a note about it.
Let the games begin.
