About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Nat King Cole recorded the definitive version of "The Christmas Song" in 1946, and while this 1960 re-recording is sublime, seek out the original. Although there is a heavy-handed use of orchestras and choruses on this record, Cole rises above the dreck with stellar versions of "Adeste Fidelis," "O Holy Night," and more. Originally released in September 1963, The Christmas Song [Capitol 1967] was reissued on CD in 1990 and again in 2005 with the addition of two bonus tracks.. Dennis MacDonald, All Music Guide

November 18, 2007: This is the quintessential Christmas CD. Really, if you can only buy one, this should be it. Nat's voice perfectly fits the holiday spirit, and for me no Christmas could be complete without it. With all classic songs and one of history's best voices, you can't go wrong with this CD.
