Splendid
A Christmas Music Fanatic | Frederick, MD United States | 11/09/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you remember the 4-record Lawrence Welk Christmas set that Reader's Digest issued in 1969/1970, then the release of this CD is a welcome development. While "22 Merry Christmas Favorites" is a terrific CD, I've spent years wondering how on earth they could leave off Jo Ann Castle's rip-roaring honky-tonk piano rendition of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town". This CD remedies that omission and brings you several steps closer to having all of the songs that were included in that LP set.You should also get "Jingle Bells", which features several alternative (though perfectly legitimate Lawrence Welk) recordings, as well as a few Welk recordings that aren't readily available anywhere else on CD. Then you'll need to hope for one more release to fill in the rest of the gaps, or, ideally, a CD release of the 4-record set itself. In the meantime, this CD is a must. If it contained nothing other than "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" and 45 minutes of Lawrence Welk talking about life in North Dakota, it would be well worth the price. But this one is solid from top to bottom."
The absolute best!!

"I bought the original 4 record set of this music over 35 years ago! It has been a tradition to play the music while decorating the tree. I made cassette copies for my daughter when she moved away on her own----even to England. She has kept up the tradition to this day. We were concerned about the longevity of cassettes, so were SO anxious to see if this 'wunnerful' music was available on CD. Imagine my extreme thrill to find it on your website!! I ordered this and another CD for her and myself. Now we can be assured of listening to his fantastic music for many years to come. What memories flood back!! No one plays Christmas music like Lawrence Welk! THANK YOU for making this available."
