Editorial Review: Discount Shopping: Bing Crosby recorded six Christmas songs during the '40s and '50s with the popular Andrew Sisters and all are compiled here for the first time. Twenty tracks overall, A Merry Christmas with Bing Crosby and the Andrew Sisters showcases classic and timeless performances between the three sisters and the king crooner on staples such as "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Winter Wonderland" (with Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians), "Mele Kalikimaka," and others. In between, there's plenty of Bing ("Happy Holiday" from his smash film, Holiday Inn, "The First Snowfall," "Christmas in Killarney") and a bounty of Andrew Sisters' songs that run from the "Merry Christmas Polka" to the peppy vocal burst of "Jing-a-Ling, Jing-a-Ling." --Martin Keller Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great Music from Bing and the "Sisters" I am a huge fan of Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters. This collection is so great to listen to. I enjoy all the arrangements and my favorites are Jingle Bells, Mele Kalekimaka, and Christmas in Kilarney. Classic music!!! Rating: - Not quite 25 years old and I love itMy mother used to play this in the tape version when I was young. We played it EVERY Christmas thereafter until we wore the tape out. Now, at 24, I have my own house, and I miss the old songs. They really made Christmas special. So, I downloaded the mp3 version for quicker access. Nostalgia is much in the eye of the beholder. For those of us who grew up to this music, this brings back wonderful memories. I would assume that my Great grandmother and/or grandmother got my mother hooked, as she ...

It all began in the early 1940s when Decca released their 78 rpm album No. A-403 containing five records (Silent Night, Holy Night b/w Adeste Fideles, White Christmas b/w God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen, I'll Be Home For Christmas b/w Faith Of Our Fathers, ... Read More Rating: - A Merry Christmas Witj Bing Crisby and the Andrews SistersA Merry Christmas with Bing Crosby & The Andrews Sisters I bought this because it was Bing Crosby and discovered a song from my grade school days - The ChristmasTree Angel. A pleasant surprise and one I've shared with my sisters and brother. We all have copies. Rating: - sublimeThis may not be the season to review a CD called A Merry Christmas with Bing Crosby & The Andrews Sisters; but it's so well done and sweet I couldn't resist. The sound quality is rather good given the age of these recordings; and the artwork reflects good judgment. Bing Crosby starts the track set with his "Happy Holiday;" the big band arrangement shines like gold! Bing never misses a beat and neither do the ladies! SMILE "Happy Holiday" gets a solid, upbeat melody with a tempo that ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
