For years I'd heard many declare this album among the all time GREAT Christmas albums. This year finding a great bargain on eBay, I decided to add this to my Christmas music collection. This quickly became one of my favorites. I was afraid it would be too "schmaltzy" or that all the songs would have the same sentimentalism as "the Christmas Song" (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire), such that one would get sick of hearing it after a few times. But oh was I wrong. This quickly earned a regular spot in my Christmas rotation. It's a nice mix of songs -- some more sentimental, some sacred Christmas carols, and VERY "easy listening" -- perfect background music for a Christmas party or during Christmas dinner. The quality of the remastered CD is excellent. Nat King Cole did truly set the standard for Christmas music with this release. Sometimes the old classics really are timeless... This is definitely one of the classics a Christmas music fan NEEDS to own. I can't believe I waited so many years to buy it!Read full review
If you love classic renditions of the best known Christmas hymns and carols, then this is the album for you. I grew up with this collection of Christian songs performed by the matchless talent of Nat King Cole and never can get into the Christmas mood unless I hear his soothing, rich voice. His version of The Christmas Song in particular is without peer. You will never be disappointed with this music if you love Christmas songs performed in classic style.
So many memories in this beautiful CD. The duet with Natalie Cole was an added bonus.
