Awesome 😎

Early 2000's; Dad played this on our rustic old-fashioned radio (cassette-tape copy), while I was sitting on the couch playing Spyro on the PS1. I hit Twilight Harbor just as Caroling, Caroling starts. I now associate that song with the level more than the actual soundtrack. Then that night we go out to the hardware store and buy a tree. Good times.

We listened to this every year forever when we were growing up it reminds me of happy carefree days of being a child in a warm home full of memories and love~ ty

my mother had all but about 1 of these albums and we listened to them every year. i have them now and still listen, except i thought i'd be.moving and packed them. after i unpack next year i'll start listenening to them and others again.

Enero de 1954, el año que nací, definitivamente mis papás oyeron esta bellísima música. Fue mi primera Navidad. desde luego que no la recuerdo, pero me regresa a cómo pudo haber sido ese año... 🥰😍🎄🎅🏻

I love it

Good music

I remember this album from 64!!

…I enjoyed this album. Some fun songs on here. I especially liked Christmas Tree at 18:26 They performed it so well. Thank you for the upload, and Merry Christmas 2024. 🥰☃️❄️💙🕊️🎼🌲🎶

We had this album when I was growing up. Great memories. Thanks for sharing!

This was my childhood album. I treasure this wonderful Christmas record. Such marvelous moments captured in time!

Beautiful Christmas hymns i love Christmas Hymns. Happy Christmas to All From India

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ merry Christmas 🎁🌎🌞✨✨✨✨🧚🏼‍♀️👁️🎄🎅🤶🧑‍🎄❤ world 🌍

Beautiful. thanks for posting.

I'm delighted to have the chance to listen to this entire album; thanks so much!!! The Christmas in Killarney track - one of the best Christmas instrumentals I've ever heard - can also be found on the delightful four-LP MCA collection, "One Hundred Favorite Songs of Christmas".

Some of the same arrangements Gould used in his classic 1949 Columbia recording, Christmas Music for Orchestra.

This is my favorite Christmas album! Is it posted anywhere in its entirety?

Man alive, the ornaments on the album cover look like my grandma's. 🎄☃️

This is so beautiful. I love every track. Thank you, you Christmas Records. You are the best ❤

I had this when I was a kid. Notice at 19:26 the singer takes a breath too soon.

Thank you for giving us the most beautiful music there is. God Bless!

I wasn’t expecting too much, but this LP has surprised me with its creative instrumentation and arrangements, excellent production (sounds great on headphones - such nice stereo!) and of course a very nice transfer to KZbin - thanks for posting!

I made a cassette recording of this off our record player for my mother, and my father must've been teaching her to use the cassette player and accidently recorded them talking over the beginning of 'Oh come all ye faithful'. I still listen and smile when I hear their voices.

This music is very beautiful, Jesus is the same, yesterday today and forever.

Love this❣️

This was a cornerstone of our family Holidays for decades.

They knew a thing or two about celebrating Christmas in those days.

I have this CD and I LOVE it. Thanks for posting!

Thank you. I have these as a family pass down, and this is what was played on Christmas day. We took it in turns to change the record or side. They are now in a poor state, so this is fabulous. Thank you so much for posting and Merry Christmas.

HOW MUCH BETTER CHRISTMAS SEEMED BACK THEN WITH GREAT BANDS LIKE THIS

BEAUTIFUL AND MY ERA AS WELL!

i loved this record as a little one!😍😍😍😍😍

Continues to be my ultimate favorite LP. Dad had purchased it when I was a little girl and now I am the proud owner of all his LPs. "A Christmas Festival" gives me goosebumps at the end when I hear the majestic ending! Thanks Christmas Records.

I would take this over the crap that passes for Christmas music today - and I say this as a Millennial.

My mother had Magnavox home entertainment system she played her records on. Colored TV, record player, and AM FM stereo.

Never heard before. My mother had a pretty extensive album collection but this one doesn't ring a bell in my brain housing group. Very nice!

These Firestone albums take me back to my senior high school days (1950's}...were the Christmas 's music staple when vinyl platters were the king. Thanks for the memories!!!!!

Awesome! I listened to this recording a few years ago and it was slower and not nearly as clean as what you have presented. THANK YOU! As a Trombone player who loves Christmas Music, you have made my day! Merry Christmas!

This was the Christmas music that was played at home. So many found memories of 🌲💚

We had this album when I was growing up and it was my favorite! I have since purchased a copy and listen to it often. Thanks for bringing back great memories!!!

Okay, I’ve been playing this on repeat since yesterday. Reminds me of “A Christmas Story” - just a good, old-fashioned Christmas album. ♥️🎄

The spirit of the band non verbally speaks the words of truth, honesty, purity and the love of Christ for fallen mankind!! Merry Christmas everyone and God bless you all!!!

I grew up listening to this album. It wasnt Christmas without it. Granted, I do confess that I eventually grew to like another Philly sound when funk and disco came into the mold. Then I got into heavy metal. Oh, the horror!LOL

Magnificent music, such a relief!!

Boy, howdy! This is all kinds of wonderful.

Now its P Diddy and Beyonce .. What a sin and a shame

Thank you so much for uploading this! Grew up with this, but it’s hard to find this album now.

Those who enjoy this album should seek out Morton Gould's Christmas Music for Orchestra (1949; Columbia # ml 2065).

I've seen the real album cover in thrift stores. and yes, it's wild looking.
