Vinyl LP repressing of the mono version of this holiday classic. Digitally remastered edition of the original holiday album by Brian Wilson and the boys. With this release, the album is returned to it's original form with no additional bonus tracks, but what a treat it is. No holiday is complete without harmony-laden Pop/Rock tunes like 'Little Saint Nick', 'Santa's Beard' and 'Man with All the Toys'. This album gets better with time, just like dear ol' Santa himself!
Originally released in 1964, this classic early Beach Boys album contains both traditional holiday songs like "White Christmas," "Blue Christmas," and "Frosty the Snowman," and Brian Wilson-penned originals like "Little Saint Nick," "Merry Christmas, Baby," and "Christmas Day," the latter of which is also Al Jardine's lead vocal debut. A rarity in that half the album is produced by Dick Reynolds, the regular arranger for primary Beach Boys influences the Four Freshmen, rather than Brian Wilson himself, the CHRISTMAS ALBUM also features a gorgeous a cappella version of "Auld Lang Syne," previously unreleased mixes, and contemporary interviews with both Brian and Dennis Wilson.
The Beach Boys: Mike Love (vocals); Carl Wilson, Al Jardine (guitar, vocals); Brian Wilson (bass, keyboards, vocals); Dennis Wilson (drums, vocals).
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
