Search - Perry Como :: Complete RCA Christmas Collection (3 CD Set)

A roaring fire, something warm to wear (probably a cardigan) and the crooning call of Perry Como such has been the comforting recipe for countless Christmas celebrations across generations. And now here's a collection to pass down through those generations ALL of the holiday-themed recordings Perry made for RCA over 36 years taken from the original tapes, with notes by longtime admirer (and co-producer of this compilation) Richard Carpenter! The first eight tracks hail from the original 78 rpm album Perry Como Sings Merry Christmas (1946), followed by six non-album singles. Next up is the 1953 album Around the Christmas Tree, plus, as a bonus, two spoken-word radio introductions from Perry. That s disc one; disc two leads off with three more singles, then the 1959 stereo album Season's Greetings from Perry Como, which hit the Pop album charts for four straight years and the Christmas album charts for six more years after that! And disc three offers two single sides, then the chart-topping 1968 release The Perry Como Christmas Album, a rare album outtake ("Some Children See Him") and another single before fittingly winding up with Perry's final holiday recording from 1982, the appropriately-titled "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Forever.' Destined to be an enduring Christmas classic!
