CEMA Special Markets' 25 Best-Loved Holiday Classics: A Christmas Treasury is an excellent budget-priced collecion of classic Christmas and holiday tunes from the EMI-Capitol vaults. There's quite a bit of variety on the album -- it ranges from choirs to vocal pop to rock & roll to country -- but it instead of working against the album, the diverse music distinguishes the record. No other holiday compilation boasts Bing Crosby ("I Wish You a Merry Christmas"), The King's Singers ("Deck the Hall"), Al Martino ("O Come All Ye Faithful"), Lena Horne ("The Little Drummer Boy"), Jose Feliciano ("Feliz Navidad"), Ella Fitzgerald ("It Came Upon a Midnight Clear"), Tanya Tucker ("What Child Is This"), Les Brown ("The Nutcracker Suite"), Peggy Lee ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), Dean Martin ("White Christmas"), The Beach Boys ("We Three Kings"), The Lettermen ("O Holy Night"), the Roger Wagner Chorale ("Good King Wenceslas") and Wayne Newton ("Silent Night"). And the very fact that they're all available on one inexpensive collection makes 25 Best-Loved Holiday Classics one of the more worthwhile budget-line comps available. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine Christmas Treasury Songs | 1. | White Christmas - Dean Martin |

Popular songs are often associated with the vocalists that made them famous but few artists actually have the distinction of having a "theme" song along the lines of Bob Hope with "Thanks for the Memories." Even fewer can claim to have two theme songs attached to them and Andy Williams is one of those fortunate stars. After "Moon River" became forever linked to Williams, he recorded a holiday song for his first Christmas album that gave him a yuletide hit and theme song. "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" was the right song at the right time for Williams when he began to perform it on his highly successful NBC Christmas specials that featured the whole Williams clan. Both the song and the television specials were so memorable, it wasn't long before Williams was crowned "Mr. Christmas." Of course having a full album of wonderful holiday songs perfectly performed doesn't hurt either and the Andy Williams Christmas Album was an instant hit when released in 1963 and has since become a traditional classic. Along with "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year," Williams cheerfully celebrates with the spirited medley "Happy ...
