I'll Be Home for Christmas Discography

I thought this year I would share with you the discography I have been working on of all the recordings of "I'll Be Home for Christmas." I can hear you asking, "A what?" Simply put, a discography is like a bibliography (those pesky things we had to put at the end of term papers) but for recorded media. I had to decide on a style guide for the list & I chose MLA because it seemed the least complicated.

If you are looking for other songs by Kim Gannon, check out this discography. It is pretty extensive, & like mine, a work in progress.

So, here is the discography in all it's incomplete glory. I am also attempting to compile many of recordings in my iTunes library. How many do you have on your Christmas playlist?

 Rascal Flatts* (video above) have the honor this year (though it came out in 2008) of my favorite version. They re-arranged the song & put the opening bit in the middle. Their harmonies are as good as ever. Great job. Click HERE if video does not load.

30% of all royalties from "I'll Be Home for Christmas" go to St. Lawrence University, Kim Gannon's Alma Mater.
