Columbia, Late 60s. Used ... $3.99
Killer Christmas work from Tony Bennett – a set recorded in the 60s, but a classic that endures strongly over the years! Tony's vocals are superb here – that nicely matured style that's kept him in front of younger ears over the years – and the backings are somewhat traditional, ... read more CD

With Dianne Reeves & James Williams. CD
King/Polygram, Late 60s. Used ... $8.99
Excellent funky Christmas! Not everyone knows it, but James Brown cut a fair number of Christmas albums during the 60s – 3 albums, and a bunch of singles to be exact! They're all super-rare, but this great comp brings together some of the best material from those years – and nearly ... read more CD

EMI, Early 60s. Used ... $2.99
Alvin, Dave, and crew continue their merry Christmas mayhem – playfully delivering new versions of older Christmas favorites, all topped off by the mad studio wizardry of David Seville!

Capitol, Late 50s. Used ... $3.99

(Out of print.)
Fania, 1970. Used ... $16.99
The birth of a whole new genre in Latin music – the salsa Christmas album – but a record that easily stands with some of Willie Colon's best work of the time! The style here is relatively rootsy – and marks one of Willie's first shifts into that mode – with heavy cuatro ... read more CD
(Out of print. Rear tray card is creased.)
Fania, 1973. Used ... $18.99
A great second session of Christmas music from Willie Colon in the 70s – served up with the same warm spirits and earthy energy as the first!

Motown, 1995. Used ... $2.99

Motown, 1970. Used ... $3.99
The Temps' 1970 Christmas album – decidedly mellower than most of their non-holiday work at the time, with production by Barrett Strong and Clay McMurray, and an overall approach that's in keeping with the sanctimonious spirit of the holiday.
