The Classic Christmas Album

by Tony Bennett

Overview

This collection features a sampling of four Tony Bennett Christmas albums -- Snowfall: The Tony Bennett Christmas Album, Our Favorite Things, Christmas with Tony Bennett, and A Swingin' Christmas -- released between 1968 and 2008. Highlights include such traditional holiday standards as "Silver Bells," "Silent Night," and "Winter Wonderland," plus "Christmas in Herald Square," taken from the album The Playground. This is a nice addition to any Christmas collection. ~ Al Campbell
