Title: A CHRISTMAS TO REMEMBER
Product review: Everything Patti recorded for her Columbia albums in the 1960s was well planned and produced. Each LP had a theme and some of her best performances were recorded during her stay at Columbia. When this album was recorded fall of 1965, Patti was just coming off the Top 10 hit, HUSH HUSH SWEET CHARLOTTE. Patti's arrangers and producers decided this was a perfect time for a new Christmas album since the original 12 inch album on Mercury was 10 years old. Patti does marvels with SILVER BELLS, LITTLE DRUMMER BOY, the too often missed SANTO NATALE and of course the song which became Patti 's biggest Christmas hit ever, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS. Patti is a consummate storyteller and this selection again shows her skill, sincerity and perfection. This is a CD which is a family affair as many selections include an unnamed children's chorus. There are the secular and the traditional. This CD deserves to be available each Christmas.
