Customer Reviews
Merry Christmas, a prosperous New Year and God bless.
This was Wayne Newton's second Christmas album. It was originally released in 1979. It features mostly older Christmas songs plus a few originals. The older ones are mostly nothing special, although he does do an exceptional version of "Silver Bells". Another notable "oldie" is "Jingle Bell Hustle", which is a disco version of "Jingle Bells". This incredibly dated track was actually released as a single, and not surprisingly wasn't a hit. As for the original songs, they are a mixed bag. "It's the Season" is very good and "It Could Have Been a Wonderful Christmas" is above average, but the rest of them aren't that memorable. This is a definite "middle of the road" Christmas album.
Old Wayne not Classic Young Wayne
Growing up my family owned two different Wayne Newton LP albums. One was Wayne's very first album titled Merry Christmas to You and the Second was Merry Christmas from Wayne Newton. I have been looking for alternatives to the costly process of searching out mint condition LPs and having them ripped to CD or MP3.
THIS ALBUM IS NOT IT. This album is Older More Swing style Wayne when I am looking for Young crooner style Wayne from the 60's. If you like Wayne's style as he is now this is the album for you. If not keep looking.
Christmas Classic
A true Christmas Classic. With the exception of Jingle Bell Hustle it's an album that does not appear the least bit dated. It's still fresh and full of the Christmas spirit. Once again, Wayne Newton delievers the goods, and this time with a collection of Christmas songs you can enjoy year after year.
