AllMusic Review (4.5 of 5 Stars) by Al Campbell
Recorded in 1985, finds performing a variety of holiday favorites with vocal assistance from and an appearance by jazz trumpeter . The ten tracks mix standards and originals, including "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," and the ballad "That Spirit of Christmas," which was featured in the movie National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. is perfect background music for any holiday celebration.
