Music Mama: Songs that “give thanks”

By Jackie Helton, the Music Mama

With only about three weeks to go before Thanksgiving, our November music playlist will help you find your grateful groove. Listen to this playlist on your iPod while you’re cooking the big feast, or use these songs as the perfect musical backdrop for your Thanksgiving get-togethers with friends and family. Some of the songs are old, some new, some in-between – just like family itself. Enjoy.
