Classic Christmas Album

Holiday albums are a subgenre all their own, with a brief sales window each holiday season, offset by the fact that these albums are generally economical and easy to produce, often featuring hymns or carols that are in the public domain, and they can be reissued each holiday season for years, and sometimes even decades, all of which makes them far from a loss leader. This set features tracks from country stars George Jones and Tammy Wynette cut during the couple's happier days, including the minor holiday classic "New Baby for Christmas," here in its original single version. ~ Steve Leggett
