Description
For more than six decades, Jack Jones has been recognized as one of America's premier vocalists. Frank Sinatra called him "one of the major singers of our time," while Paul Williams noted, "He doesn't perform a song; he lives it." Williams would know, as one of the writers of Jones' immortal theme to The Love Boat. But "The Love Boat" and beloved hits like "Wives and Lovers" and "Lollipops and Roses" merely scratch the surface of Jones' remarkable career. One of the crown jewels of his impressive discography is 1964's The Jack Jones Christmas Album. On the Kapp Records release--arranged and conducted by the great Marty Manning--Jones wrapped his velvet pipes around some of the most cherished Christmas favorites of all time. Lush renditions of "White Christmas," "I'll Be Home for Christmas," and "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)" are among the most beautiful ever recorded, while Jones' renditions of "Sleigh Ride," "My Favorite Things," and Frank Sinatra's "Mistletoe and Holly" truly swing. Yet, a CD release always eluded this fan-favorite holiday perennial...until now! Real Gone Music and Second Disc Records are proud to bring The Jack Jones Christmas Album to CD for the very first time anywhere in the world! This long-awaited, sparkling new stereo edition has been remastered by Mike Milchner from original tape sources and boasts liner notes from The Second Disc's Joe Marchese. Today, Jack Jones continues to bring his singular, stylish vocals to stages around the world with same impeccably smooth and pure tone he brought to The Jack Jones Christmas Album. Break out the egg nog; this fan-favorite classic is sounding better than ever and ready to spread its joyous Christmas spirit once again!

Jack Jones glorious masterpiece from 1964 has to rate as one of the ten greatest Christmas albums of all time. Featuring the two time grammy winning singer with a golden set of pipes that feature his flawless tone and pitch, one is amazed that it took so long to get this legendary album released in its first complete digital glory with original album cover artwork included.Real Gone Music, the gold standard when it comes to remastering and releasing Christmas albums from the golden age of Christmas music that occurred from the late 50's to the middle to late 60's and slightly beyond, has once again put out a product of such quality and class that it would behove other catalogue labels to take notice on what is the right way to remaster and re-release these sonic gems from the past.Jack's version of Sleigh Ride sets the mood and the standard from the very beginning. If Mr. Jones breakneck version featuring the absolutely jaunty and magnificent orchestral arrangement of Marty Manning does not put a smile on your face, especially the great horn mimicking a horse and Jack's last vocal raspberry exclamation, than your just not in the festive spirit of Christmas.The highlights continue with his absolutely stellar version of My Favorite Things which would turn the song from being known more as a standard from The Sound Of Music to a bona fide Christmas standard that many artists would copy, particularly his jazzy vocal interpretation. Just listen to Kelly Clarkson's version from her magnificent Christmas album to see where she might have gotten her original inspiration for her great rendition.If you love Johnny Mathis's Merry Christmas masterpiece or the Andy Williams Christmas album from the same time period or the great Nat King Cole album, The Christmas Song or Michael Buble's modern day Christmas standard that fits right in with the beauty and timelessness of these masterpieces, you will absolutely love The Jack Jones Christmas Album from 1964, freshly and magnificently remastered in all its digital glory from the original master tapes owned by Universal Music.
