The Complete Mercury Christmas Recordings Featuring the Albums

The Complete Mercury Christmas Recordings Featuring the Albums "Christmas Card" & "Christmas Present"

The Statlers patented country gospel sound and Christmas music were a marriage made in, well, heaven...and so both of the albums, Christmas Card and Christmas Present, that comprise this collection of their complete Christmas recordings for the Mercury label hit the country charts and remain favorites of holiday listeners young and old. In fact, 1978 s Christmas Card went platinum; it s made up of mostly well-known Christmas favorites while 1985 s Christmas Present, recorded with new member Jimmy Fortune, who had replaced Lew DeWitt due to illness, brought more originals to the mix. Both albums remain a big part of the country Christmas canon, and though they ve been sliced and diced for various collections over the years, the original albums themselves have been out of print for years. The Complete Mercury Christmas Recordings sets things right by offering both albums in their entirety with original album art included inside the CD booklet, with liner notes by long-time Statlers fan and follower John Alexander.
