Review

RCA/Sony BMG's Elvis Christmas collection features all of the tracks from the King's 1957 Christmas Album and 1971's Elvis Sings the Wonderful World of Christmas. The former is a classic, boasting "Santa Claus Is Back in Town" and his peerless rendering of "Blue Christmas," while the spotty 1971 release relied on soul and country-inflected standards like "First Noel" and "Silver Bells." ~ James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide
