Description
Your ticket to the greatest Christmas Day ever--a 22-track collection containing her complete holiday-themed recordings, plus some unreleased material! We've gone deep into the Columbia vaults and even into Doris' private collection for this one; the first 12 tracks hail from her beloved 1964 release 'The Doris Day Christmas Album', and include 'Silver Bells; I'll Be Home for Christmas; Snowfall; Toyland; Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!; Be a Child at Christmas Time; Winter Wonderland; The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire); Christmas Present; Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas; The Christmas Waltz', and 'White Christmas'. Then, I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm' comes from the ambitious 'Hooray for Hollywood' double-album that she recorded with Frank DeVol in 1959, while 'Deck the Halls with Boughs of Holly' (first U.S. release!) is the only finished song from a shelved holiday album Doris began with DeVol that same year. 'Here Comes Santa Claus; Ol' Saint Nicholas; Christmas Story; Silver Bells', and 'The Christmas Song' (with Les Brown & His Orchestra) are all single sides she cut for Columbia from 1946 to 1950, while 'Silent Night' and 'Doris Day Christmas Greeting' are unreleased tracks, the first from her early-'50s radio show, the second from her late-'60s TV show for CBS. The set winds up with an emotionally-charged reading of 'Let No Walls Divide' taken from the all-star Christmas album 'We Wish You the Merriest' Columbia released in 1951 to promote stars like Johnny Cash, Aretha Franklin and Andre Previn as well as Doris. We can't think of a vocal star we'd rather have over for Christmas--we think this 'Collectors' Choice Music' exclusive will be a perennial holiday favorite in your home for years to come. Merry Christmas!
