December 20: The Wonders - That thing you Do! 

Gotta love that Tom Hanks. Not only did he write and direct That Thing You Do!, my favorite movie of all time, but he also commissioned an entire album of original songs (some of which Hanks co-wrote) designed to sound like they could have fit on the radio in the early 1960s. In addition to the title track (which was written by one of the guys from Fountains of Wayne, ya know), you get four other "Wonders" songs and tunes by the Chantrellines, the Vicksburgs (in Pittsburgh, the Vicksburgs in Pittsburgh), and my favorite band of all time, Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters.
