One of the most popular shares ever around these parts is Fred Waring's
Twas The Night Before Christmas, each and every year I get dozens of emails from people who are excited to be able to download and listen to it after losing touch with it over the years. I thought I was familiar with all of Fred Waring's Christmas catalog though, From their early recording of
The Nutcracker Suite through the later stuff on Capitol, but I'd never seen the LP I'm sharing with you tonight. It's an ambitious recording featuring mostly music by Roy Ringwald plus a couple of Christmas standards. And I guess those Roy Ringwald pieces have some standards built in, too. I'm sure you'll really enjoy this addition to the Fred Waring canon. This is
Fred Waring Presents The Pennsylvanians In The Song Of Christmas (Decca DL 8084, Mono, 1948). I think this originally came out on a set of 78s, which I've never seen, but mine is an early LP.

ReplyDeleteHi Ernie, is there any chance of re-upping this one for Christmas Season 2021? I am very interested in hearing the Christmas Crib. Thank you for all of the wonderful music you have shared over the years here, and at Buster’s.
