Whether you call it A Christmas Gift For You or Phil Spector’s Christmas Album, there’s no denying that this is not simply one of the most celebrated sets of holiday tunes ever--it’s one of the greatest albums in pop music history. The Ronettes, The Crystals, Darlene Love and Bob B. Soxx and The Blue Jeans sing definitive versions of holiday classics like “Sleigh Ride,” “Frosty The Snowman” and “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” (plus, of course, the original version of “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)”), all in arrangements that capture the revolutionary “Wall of Sound” production at its peak. Presented in its historic original mono mix, A Christmas Gift For You is the perfect vinyl gift for yourself this holiday season.
