Time for another record in the saga that is today, a short series of big fancy gatefold records that try to tell the story either of Christ's birth or his entire life, all in the grooves of a record. We'll not just in the grooves, but on the elaborate sleeves as well. This one at least is all songs, so it may hold your attention a little better than the last couple, and I think I scanned all the pages in this one, so you have something to look at as well. This is
The Epic Choir-Peter Sozio, Conductor-
The Story Of Christmas (Epic LC 3144, Mono, 1955). Is this the oldest record I've shared so far this year? I feel like my time frame for inclusion has really moved much closer to the present this year. Stuff from the Seventies still doesn't seem that old to me, but I guess it is...
1. O Come Emanuel
2. O Come All Ye Faithful
3. O Little Town Of Bethlehem
4. The First Noel
5. We Three Kings
6. Away In A Manger
7. What Child Is This
8. Silent Night, Holy Night
9. Angels We Have Heard On High
10. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
11. Cantique De Noel
12. Lo, How A Rose E'er Blooming
13. Good King Wenceslas
14. Deck The Hall
15. Good Christian Men, Rejoice
16. God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen
17. It Came Upon The Midnight Clear
18. Joy To The World
