Customer Review: As with the first Christmas CD that I reviewed, which technically goes hand in hand with this particular Christmas CD (originally they were sold as a set), I must say that this one is just as amazing as the other one. As I said, these are the original songs by the original artists and the sounds are... more info
Customer Review: I love Harry Belafonte's voice and I love having a different style of Christmas music to listen to. It's the first CD I play when Christmas is approaching. Then, I listen to the more traditional music. This is a wonderful, wonderful CD.

Customer Review: It was wonderful to hear this favorite again. You almost feel that you are in the audience. I received this as a gift 48 (yes 48) years ago, and of course it was a record 'album'.
