What's yours? Mine's 12 Songs Of Christmas by Jim Reeves which I managed to buy on CD a few years' ago. First released in 1963 I grew up hearing my parents' LP every Christmas. Very short, just over 30 minutes playing time but an excellent album. There are other Jim Reeves Christmas compilations with more tracks but this is the original and best.

My second fave is Phil Spector's Christmas album and third is Mariah Carey's first Xmas album.

When I was young that was also the the essential LP played in our house every Xmas - played on repeat for six hours whilst the decorations were going up !!

Si Senor Santa Claus, An Old Christmas Card, The Christmas Polka - songs still burned into my brain even now.

I have a French Christmas album that I bought in France several years ago, it's a favourite in our house and is played many times each year. Also my mum's Boney M Christmas album is a favourite, also gets played often.
