Juliet Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 A Christmas To Remember by Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby.. I just bought this because I don't have a recording of White Christmas by Bing... It's an interesting CD. There is no break between the songs. They talk between the songs. When they sing they share the songs...Frank will sing one verse than Bing will sing another. They sing in harmony as well as unison. There are also tunes where one will sing alone. There are carols as well as holiday songs... Juliet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jahfin Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) My parents had a ton of Christmas albums but Gene Autry's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was usually the first one on the turntable on Christmas morning. In more recent years it's become tradition to listen to these on the way to Christmas morning festivities. Just this year I upgraded them from cassette to CD. ...and it never actually feels like Christmas until I hear this one by Robert Earl Keen: Merry Christmas From the Family Edited December 24, 2007 by Jahfin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
