Merry Christmas Baby (Jewel)

CD (Item 618069) Fuel 2000, 1974 — Condition: Used
Out Of Stock

CD

✈
A surprisingly cool collection of tracks that hides under the "Merry Christmas Baby" title of Charles Brown's big postwar Holiday hit – but which instead includes a fair bit of later soul, blues, and gospel numbers recorded for Jewel and Paula Records! The package mixes things up nicely – and has a deeper sense of soul than you might expect – and the CD track listing is a bit different than the original Jewel Records LP. Titles include the jazzy "Silent Night" by The Ronnie Kole Trio, the soulful "The Bells" by Bobby Powell, "Lonesome Christmas (parts 1 & 2)" by Lowell Fulsom, "White Christmas" and "Little Jesus Boy" by The Violinaires, "Christmas Blues" by Big Joe Williams, and "Merry Christmas Baby", "Please Come Home For Christmas", "Just A Blessing", and "Christmas In Heaven" by Charles Brown.  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.


Used CD Grade

We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
