    Rhythm Planet’s Thanksgiving Playlist

    A bunch of songs—some elegant, some silly—to keep you company as you prepare for (or indulge in) the big feast.

    Thanksgiving is upon us this week, so I’ve put together a bunch of songs—some elegant, some silly—to keep you company as you prepare for (or indulge in) the big feast. Rhythm Planet bids everybody a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving, whether you spend it with family, friends, and/or animal companions. I’m planning on lots of stuffing, post-feast paralysis, ending in a pleasant l-tryptophan stupor. Enjoy!
