And no matter what it is a great addition to a Christmas collection. Yes, I'll admit it. There's no other guitarist like Chet Atkins. I didn't own this release on record and don't have the same pre-conceived notions on it. I couldn't tell you that it was mastered for CD at the wrong speed like other reviewers.What I could tell you is that I didn't hear this release until I picked up the CD. He was a master of the six-string and this release provides great reditions of Yultide faves, only the way Chet can do it.Maybe this sounded better on vinyl and we got cheated when it was remastered to CD. Nevertheless, it's Chet Atkins playing Christmas tunes.what more persuasion do you need.
I have owned a copy of this on vinyl since it was originally released. Chet's version of Jingle Bell Rock was used for background on all the radio advertisements during that period at Christmas time. Even today this song is widely played around the holidays. With the inclusion of the Anita Kerr singers this is easily the best Christmas Album of all time.
This is beautiful guitar work: some acoustic and some electric and it is a nice mix. Blue Christmas is my favorite as it seems the guitar is "crying".
Chet Atkins at his Christmas best. He gives a twist (and a twang) to some yuletide standards. It's too bad that he is no longer with us. :-(
I have long been a fan of Chet Atkins and this CD does not dissapoint.It is beautiful.
