Legendary, Grammy-winning arranger/conductor Johnny Mann and his prolific Singers apply their bright, smooth, spirited Sixties sound to this excellent Christmas collection. Traditional carols like 'As Lately We Watched,' 'Lo How a Rose,' 'Deck the Halls,' 'O Little Town of Bethlehem,' 'O Christmas Tree,' 'The First Noel,' and 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas' of course are here, wonderful and sincere; but we especially liked lesser known tunes like 'Johnny Bring The Pine Tree In,' 'Sleep, Sleep Jesus, Sleep' and the lovely 'Susan Belle.' The kind of Christmas album they just don't make any more, and the kind that will be enjoyed again, year after year! Some light accompaniment, but mostly a cappella.
