This collection of Sinatra’s greatest Christmas and Holiday hits is essential for anyone who loves Christmas or great music. Sinatra’s voice is timeless, but only on vinyl does it sound ethereal and crisp. Just the way it did during the Christmases of yesteryear. “I’ll Be Home For Christmas,” and “The Little Drummer Boy” will transport your home back to the Holiday parties of decades long past.
