Bing Crosby – Ultimate Christmas (2 Lp) - Brand New - Vinyl LP Record (Quick Ship)

CRCHAH23895
Dean Martin’s velvet vocals wrap classic carols in cozy swing, turning any room into a warmly lit holiday lounge.
“Dino’s Christmas” captures Dean Martin doing what he did better than almost anyone: making everything sound effortless, a little tipsy, and utterly charming. This is the sound of mid-century holiday parties—low lights, clinking glasses, and that unmistakable croon gliding over lush, jazz-leaning arrangements.
Across these Christmas standards, Martin doesn’t belt or grandstand. Instead, he leans into the songs with relaxed swing and sly warmth, turning familiar carols into intimate performances. Up-tempo tracks bounce with big-band shimmer, while the slower moments feel like he’s singing just for the people gathered closest to the record player.
Culturally, this record sits in the golden age of American holiday music, alongside Sinatra and Nat King Cole, but Dean’s delivery is looser, more playful—perfect if you want your Christmas soundtrack to feel like a good conversation rather than a formal recital. On vinyl, the arrangements gain extra depth: brushed drums, soft brass, and backing choirs blend into a rich, analog glow.
If you collect holiday records, this is essential: a snapshot of classic Capitol-era cool that still feels inviting, unpretentious, and genuinely festive decades later.
