The Spirit of Christmas

  • Summary

  • My Kind of Scene uncovers the past and present of Australian music. In this episode, we travel through the annals of time according to Myer Grace Bros' (not a sponsor!) yearly The Spirit of Christmas charity compilation CD, which for 25 years featured Aussie artists interpreting Christmas tunes. We discuss the highlights and weird-lights and ultimately count down the top 5 versions of the perennial holiday favorite, "Silent Night."

    My Kind Of Scene acknowledges and pays respect to the past, present and future Traditional Custodians and Elders of the land many of us call Australia.
