Classic Stuff 4 stars -1 due to the addition on two 1990's tracks It is the best 'old feeling' Christmas stuff by Glen and the sound quality is great! There is one or two more recent 1990's tracks included here which are ok but not a patch on the original stuff. This is mostly a 1960's recording. Here you will find most of the songs are taken from his 1968 capitol album Hear Glen in top form with lush orchestra and backing singers. They sure don't make 'em like this anymore and why they don't is beyond me as they sound as if they were recorded more earnestly with real atmosphere as are most 60'S artists on Capitol Christmas releases.
great
They were very happy and so was I. It isn't the glen cambell album I was looking for, but, it had most of the songs my husband and his family grew up on.
Interesting budget CD
Most tracks are taken from Glen's 1968 LP, That Christmas Feeling. This disc compiles 10 of Glen's Christmas songs from several sources, all recorded for Capitol/EMI. But, this CD also includes his 1972 single, I Believe In Christmas, plus some songs recorded for Christmas For The 90's Vols. 1-2 in 1990. Just 10 songs, but nicely chosen.
