Real Yuletime Tracks #17- Its Christmas Time- Yo La Tengo

Long time Matador band Yo La Tengo have embraced the holiday season kindly ever since their humble beginnings in New Jersey. Every year during Hanukkah they put on a string of shows in their aforementioned hometown, with the help of dozens of other musicians and all the earnings proceed to different charities. I couldn't imagine a better way to contribute to benefit different causes then to play some holiday shows. Its Christmas Time comes from their 2002 EP Merry Christmas from Yo La Tengo and all three songs are covers. Its Christmas Time is a cover from doo wop Quartet including Sun Ra and Alton Abraham and was released under the band name The Qualities( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=os3tQ8eXagA).   Below
is Yo La Tengo's version.
