Picking what to listen to over the holidays is sometimes a daunting task. It's a bumpy road out there, and not everything can be a surefire hit with your own eardrums and those around you too.

So we're making a list and checking it twice. Actually, we're making two lists and checking each once, but what's the difference?

We want to know what are the all-time best and worst holiday albums? (Old Mr. Zimmerman's 2009 effort Christmas in the Heart may fall into both categories.)

Feel free to nominate and remind our listeners of your (least) favorite holiday albums in the comments below, too.

What are your favorite — and least favorite — holiday albums and compilations?
