5.0 out of 5 stars Elvis Presley's Christmas recordings 7 Sep 2009
By Peter Durward Harris #1 HALL OF FAME TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:Audio CD
In chronological order, this album comprises the eight Christmas songs that Elvis recorded in 1957, the one he recorded in 1966 and eleven tracks that he recorded in 1971. I'm not absolutely sure if this is every Christmas song that Elvis ever recorded, but if there was much missing I'd know about it. The eight 1957 tracks were made into a twelve-track album by the addition of four gospel songs recorded at around the same time but which aren`t included here; while those tracks wouldn't be out of place on a Christmas album, they are easily obtained elsewhere, especially on compilations of Elvis' gospel music. Indeed, when this particular Christmas compilation was first released, I remember it being available as part of a double album, with the other part being a compilation of Elvis' gospel songs. I didn't buy it then because I already had a double CD of Elvis' gospel music and had the 1957 and 1966 tracks, together with one of the 1971 tracks, elsewhere. However, I eventually bought this compilation, some time after it appeared as a single CD, to get the other ten tracks.

The 1957 tracks mainly comprised Christmas classics, though not everybody appreciated Elvis' interpretation of some of them. If those critics were shocked then, they got an even bigger shock when they heard the Phil Spector Christmas album six years later. At this distance in time, those 1957 recordings don't sound all that radical but they still sound distinctive. At least one original song (Santa Claus is back in town) was included, while another (Santa bring my baby back to me) sounds as if it could have been an original, but I don't think it is. I believe the solitary 1966 track (If every day was like Christmas) is also original.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every Christmas needs this album!! 8 Dec 2003
By Peter J. Hewitt VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
As someone who was only 2 years old when Elvis died, and someone who has become a massive Elvis fan, this release was much anticipated and welcomed.
A lot of fans on Elvis forums moan about BMG releasing material which already available, but i have to say they are wrong and very lucky. Many current artists don't get the amount of releases as Elvis does and to get old material digitally remastered, repackaged (this album has the best Elvis cover ever!!) is a joy, and also good for any younger new fans who don't own the older albums.
As for this album, 20 Christmas tracks, some old favourites plus some which were written for Elvis.
This album will be played on Christmas morning while our house opens all there gifts!!!
All in all a great album, gift, christmas!!

4.0 out of 5 stars The best Christmas collection EVER? 8 Dec 2003
Format:Audio CD
This festive collection is quite possibly the best ever. Certainly it's a collection of Presley's best festive tunes and that means it's certainly the best from any one artist. There may be multiple artist collections out there that deliver equal measure of warm festive cheer but I have yet to hear one that does so, so consistently. With the exception of a couple of lesser l971 tracks (hence not quite 5 stars) this collection is excellent and certainly THE one to have. As ever, Presley's ability to convey genuine emotion better than anyone is clearly evident here. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars His first album 4 April 2011
By Richard
Format:Audio CD
Technically this was the first Elvis made as an album if you consider that the previous ones were made up of tracks from Sun and oddities from RCA.
This was a time when albums were not high priority like singles thus ther was no such thing as the Heartbreak Hotel LP.
Apparantly a number of radio stations banned this from airplay considering it sacreligious!
Which is how it may have sounded to anyone unfamiliar with the Drifter's reading of White Christmas-which I never liked anyway.
Though Santa bring my baby back was a hit single its B side Santa Claus is back in town was no more than a 12 bar blues-again unfamiliar radio fare.Leiber & Stoller were unknown anyway.It would be years before any of this stuff was taken seriously
But this album was also padded out with a few Gospel songs.I don't think Elvis' critics had much idea of what he was doing but this was new ground.
My copy of this is a double with a built in booklet.CD 1 is the Christmas songs he made over 2 different albums CD 2 is called Peace and is 20 songs from the 3 Gospel albums he made in the 60s.
The booklet shows the sleeves and the information that Elvis never won a Grammy for his rock'n'roll albums but won 3 for his Gospel work
