Between 1957 and 1968, Ray Conniff had 28 albums in the American Top 40. He started out at Columbia Records as their home arranger, backing artists such as Rosemary Clooney, Johnny Mathis, and Johnnie Ray, with his orchestra and was eventually offered the chance to do his own record. We Wish You a Merry Christmas is packed with traditional holiday tunes that Conniff and his (25) singers wove into a series of medleys. - This album has a retro studio sound, which, upon listening, may conjure up images of Lawrence Welk singers strolling the stage, dressed in matching holiday garb. Sometimes melodramatic (Ring Christmas Bells), other times, bright and exuberant (Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!), it's good, clean fun for the whole family and a solid addition to any Christmas catalog. Jolly Old St. Nicholas, The Little Drummer Boy, O Holy Night, We Three Kings Of Orient Are, Deck The Halls With Boughs Of Holly, Ring Christmas Bells, Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!, Count Your Blessings (Instead Of Sheep), We Wish You A Merry Christmas, The Twelve Days Of Christmas, The First Noel, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, O Come All Ye Faithful, We Wish You A Merry Christmas
