From Amazon.com
A family tree-trimming classic if ever there was one, this collection by chorale leader Mitch Miller is timeless--and (relatively) schmaltz-free! On Christmas Sing-Along, Mitch & the Gang stick primarily to the religious aspects of the holiday, with traditional favorites like "Joy to the World," "What Child Is This," and "We Three Kings." There is, however, a rousing version of "Deck the Halls," but if you're looking for more commercially oriented tunes like "Must Be Santa," you'll have to check out Mitch's other holiday collections (including Holiday Sing-Along). As with most of Miller's work, the songs are led by a particularly loud baritone. Blame it on the mix, but rarely a tenor is heard. (Or a soprano or alto, for that matter.) While the tone for most of the selections is rather reverent, this is a festive collection nonetheless. --Steve Gdula

Album Description
Digitally remastered edition of this holiday release. The Mitch Miller Sing Along series, initially released on record and then transferred to television proved to be one of the major music successes of the late 1950s through to the mid 1960s. Mitch himself would ask groups such as Boy Scouts and camping organizations for lists of the type of songs they liked to sing and would then compile an album built around these suggestions.
