A recent random segue paired two unexpected tunes from my iTunes library. I wouldn't have thought to play the Boz Scaggs instrumental, "Can I Make It Last (Or Will It Just Be Over?)," before Nickel Creek's version of "I'll Be Home For Christmas." After hearing those tunes back to back, however, I realized how well "Can I...," which could underscore a sunrise, serves as a prelude to Nickel Creek's acoustic take on "I'll Be Home..."
