These are the Christmas albums that comprised the set I bought for my mother two years ago and sadly had to bring home last summer. While the treatments of the songs are nothing special, they bring a bygone Christmas to life—and the old commercial contained herein are enjoyable as well (except several are from June and July and you can tell positively with at least one!).
I'll Be Home for Christmas
An American Christmas
Home for the Holidays
For more nostalgic holiday music, recommended is "A Vintage Christmas Cracker" containing both American and British Christmas songs from 1915 through 1949.
And also "Christmas at the Almanac Music Hall," which sounds as if it were played and recorded at an old VFW hall or grange meeting, recalling simpler but heartfelt celebration.
