Assuming it’s Christmas themed, Gaudete by Steeleye Span might work well…

I have a Christmas playlist with all the old favs, but the tracks that get the most “likes” from friends/family when round are a Bing Crosby Christmas album and also a “Classic Christmas” album that I cant even remember which orchestra or even where it came from !
The festive season always sees me bringing out David Rees-Williams’ punningly titled Ex-Mass. This superbly inventive jazz trio take on several well-known carols and Christmas songs manages to explore the music material whilst never failing to get my foot tapping. Very well recorded, too. It’s from Champs Hill Records and available from several of the usual sources including downloads.
Enjoy.

I always really enjoy Duke Ellington’s version of the Nutcracker Suite
I know it’s hackneyed at this time of year, but I have a deep love for Greg Lake’s I Believe in Father Christmas.
