Christmas with Ella Fitzgerald

While this budget-line release isn't the best way to collect Ella Fitzgerald's seasonal recordings -- an original LP like 1960's Ella Wishes You a Swinging Christmas is much more effective -- there's no questioning the magnificence of her renditions of holiday classics like "O Holy Night," "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" and "The First Noel," all essential regardless of format. ~ Marvin Jolly, All Music Guide
