It's our annual spinning of holiday tunes with our own Mike Wilkins, radio engineer for PRX's and GBH's "The World."

All this hour, GBH’s intrepid holiday music collector shares his new finds of old songs that are quirky, weird, and just a little bit extra. These are not the traditional carols from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, or even new traditional favorites like Mariah Carey’s "All I Want For Christmas Is You." Nope, for his annual collection of songs you never heard of, Wilkins has once again rescued vinyl one-hit-wonders from the forgotten bins of overlooked B-sides, and highlighted a few new tunes that might become classics. And this season — his 31st year of Jinglebell melodies — Wilkins' collection gives a nod to 2020’s overwhelming impact.
