This is a really nice 4 record box set, with 51 different tracks from 32 different artists. I say "tracks" instead of songs, because on one track Burl Ives reads the story of Christmas as it appears in Luke - Chapter 2, verses 8-15. On the back of each record sleeve is a paragraph (some are long paragraphs) about each track and artist on that record. This provides great background information and will give you even greater appreciation for this wonderful Christmas music. The set is in great shape. Make it your Christmas gift to yourself. You will love it.
