Album Notes
Except for a 2003 EP, Michael Buble hadn't released a holiday album until 2011's Christmas, which coincided with a television special on NBC, A Michael Buble Christmas. The album was produced by David Foster, Bob Rock and Humberto Gatica, and featured duets with Shania Twain, the Puppini Sisters, and Thal?a, among others. Along with holiday favorites ("Silent Night," "Jingle Bells," "White Christmas," "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), Christmas also features "Cold December Night," an original from Buble. Special editions included three bonus tracks and an exclusive ornament within extended packaging.

Mario Lanza - Christmas with Mario Lanza

Artist: Mario Lanza
Title Of Album: Christmas with Mario Lanza

Mario Lanza's collection of Christmas songs takes on the Italian-themed sound of his regular work, making for some interesting renditions. Everything is done in his traditional orchestrated style, with emphasis on the tones and sounds, which makes for some beautiful takes. This may not be for everyone, especially those who do not enjoy Lanza's broad croon. But for those looking for Italian-themed performances in their Christmas records, this is an excellent album to buy.
