BEAUTIFUL STAR was originally recorded and released in 1989 as CHRISTMAS SPIRITUALS, but since the CD reissue of her similarly named (and more widely known) 1960 album has created marketplace confusion, the 1989 album has been reissued with a new title and cover art. A typically elegant and deeply felt collection of standards and original songs, BEAUTIFUL STAR is both a fine holiday album and an essential listen for Odetta fans no matter the season.
