While Hag keeps the mood light with selections such as “Santa Claus and Popcorn” and more traditional fare, he also has some bite with the high and lonesome “Daddy Won’t Be Home for Christmas.” His matter-of-fact tale about layoffs at the factory, “If We Make It Through December,” has become timeless in tough times. – Dennis MacDonald
