Luke 15: 51 julelåter

I folkeopplysningens navn har jeg laget en spilleliste med 51 julelåter som ikke er blant de mest spilte. "Sort, hvit og blå jul, glad og trist jul, litt chanuka og jul på Jæren, til sjøs og i en beatniks hule" lyder beskrivelsen på Tidal, der jeg har lagt inn listen. Den er egentlig laget for leserne av Deichmans musikkblogg, mer om det her. Hele listen finner du under. Her er en smakebit, "Carol for Another Christmas" av Henry Mancini, som jeg først nylig fant ut var skrevet for en TV-film laget i 1964 av Rod Serling, skaperen av "The Twilight Zone". Filmen finnes på YouTube.
