Includes liner notes by Mary Katherine Aldin. Liner Note Author: Mary Katherine Aldin. Recording information: 1959-1970. A nice 40-minute collection of Christmas music from Vanguard's vaults. The fourteen cuts are rather biased toward Joan Baez, who is represented here with selections from NOEL, as well as a song from the Newport Folk Festival that introduced her to the folk community at large. Also sampled on this album are Odetta, the Weavers, Erik Darling and Jackie Washington. Overall, an excellent album that includes more of interest than the usual selection of Christmas standards. ~ Steven McDonald Engineer: Jeff Zaraya   Technical Info Release Date : 09/05/1995 Original Release Date : 1995 Catalog ID : 73132 Label : Vanguard Records (USA) Number of Discs : 1 Runtime : 38m : 57s Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00015707313223    Related Videos Christmas In The Heart : ...
