In 1963 Phil Spector released A Christmas Gift for You, an album of mostly secular Christmas standards. The enduring song, in my mind, is “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home),” recorded by Darlene Love.
For several years, David Letterman has brought Love onto his program just prior to Christmas to sing this song. She’s on the show tonight (11:35pm CBS) and the annual Christmas show, which also always features Jay Thomas, is appointment viewing in my house. Several years of episodes are also on the DVR.
Here is Love’s 2005 performance. Check it out!
