A welcoming window into Linda Ronstadt's favorite songs of the season, a Merry Little Christmas was originally released in 2000, and became the highest-selling Christmas album of that year. This historic release marks the first time this classic holiday album has ever been available on vinyl. Recorded in the height of the summer heat at Jim Brady Studios in Tucson, the Recital Halls at the University of Arizona, at Ocean Way Studios in Nashville, and the infamous Capitol Studios in Los Angeles, this album was produced by John Boylan and George Massenburg, two of Linda's most trusted colleagues and world-class audio virtuosos. For this classic, Linda chose several holiday standards, along with one truly unique Spanish language track and several traditional English and Welsh Christmas songs, all beautifully wrapped in the comforts of Linda's warm and familiar voice. This celebrated recording includes first-class orchestration complimented by the balance and intonation of a choir that lands it's most dynamic delivery on vinyl. Highlights include a sassy duet with Rosemary Clooney on "White Christmas," Linda's emotive rendition of the Joni Mitchell classic "River," and twelve more irresistible holiday standards that guarantee the coziest Christmas ever. Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas!
