"There's Still Christmas," Clarence Clemons (Oceangate)

The mainstay of the E Street Band's passing this year was a real rock 'n roll tragedy, and this 2011 release is likely to draw fans wanting something to remember him by. It's a straight traditional pop performance however, featuring only his singing voice and an orchestra, no sax break. For his signature sound, you go to the double flip side, short and long instrumental versions of the Mel Torme "Christmas Song." For me, the best remembrances are his work for the Boss, but your mileage may vary.
