Christmas In July 2019-Part 45

Hello, and welcome to another somewhat rare theme post.  All of the shares today feature Holiday in the name of the track or the album.  It's still a pretty mixed bag of stuff, but it's linked a bit.

1. Bing Crosby With The Music Maids And Hal And Orchestra Directed By John Scott Trotter-Happy Holiday from Holiday Inn-Bing's Hollywood (Decca DL 4256, Mono, 1962).  Probably the most well known Holiday song out there, and something I shouldn't be sharing.  But there is was, so here it is.

2. Little Johnny Everything And His Sister Judy With The Norman Leyden Child's World Orchestra-The Holiday Train from Fun For Everyday With Little Johnny Everything & His Sister Judy (RCA Victor Children's Bluebird Records LBY-1005, Mono, 1958).  Another great track from Johnny & Judy.

3. Unknown Artist-Joy To The World; Good King Wenceslas; We Wish You A Merry Christmas from Holidays Holidays (Golden Records LP 250, Mono).  Not a demo record, even though I don't know who the artist is.  The narrator on the album is James Dukas, but I don't think he's any of the voices heard performing the songs.

4. David Rose And His Orchestra-Autumn Holiday from Autumn Leaves (MGM SE 3592, Stereo, 1957).  The track I recorded most recently. I know Christmas doesn't occur in Autumn, but it had Holiday in the title and it was a great David Rose original, so I had to throw it in here.

5. André Previn & David Rose-Blue Holiday from Like Blue (MGM SE3811, Stereo, 1960).  Uh-oh, two David Rose tracks in a row.  That's breaking the unwritten rules around here, but I hope you'll forgive me.

6. Bob Hope-Christmas Day from Holidays (Spear/Bell 4700, Stereo, 1973).  I was saving this one for an all-comedy day, but I figured it would fit in here as well.

7. Pierre Challet And His Orchestra-Holiday For Strings from Strings In Hi-Fi (Mercury Wing SRW 16230, Stereo, 1962).  At least I found someone else doing David Rose's most famous track.  And shouldtn't this LP be titles Strings In Stereo?  Hi-Fi usually denotes mono.

8. Lynn Roberts, Carmen Baron & Juda Campbell-My Christmas Wish from Holiday Songs For All Occasions (Kimbo Educational KIM 0805, Stereo, 1978).  Music for the kiddies, but the album had Holiday in the title.

9. Richard Hayman And His Harmonica Orchestra-Parade Of The Wooden Soldiers (From "Chauve Souris") from Harmonica Holiday (Mercury Perfect Presence Sound Series PPS 6005, Stereo, 1961). Great version on the harmonica!

10. The Riviera Orchestra-White Christmas (From Holiday Inn) from The Best Of Irving Berlin (Wing (Mercury) SRW-11010, Stereo).  I was pretty excited when I saw this, but I see where I first shared it out back in 2008, then promptly forgot all about it.  So it goes...

And that's it!  Ten Holiday tracks for you.  Here's the download link, hope you find something good in there.
