Robert Rheims - "Merry Christmas in Carols"
Merry Christmas!
The day is finally here with this final review of the 2020 Cabin Corner Christmas Special. And what an album to go out on.
I already loved this album going in. This has been on my table every holiday season since I picked it up several years ago. It's a fighting contender with A Charlie Brown Christmas as one of my favorite Christmas albums.
Classic renditions of holiday hits on nothing but organs and chimes. Beautiful, warm, and inviting. If I could slap this on repeat throughout the entire day of Christmas I would. Perfect for Christmas morning gift opening and enjoying a glistening holiday ham during Christmas dinner. Hell, it's even perfect for after supper caroling as a lyric sheet is printed on both sides of the insert sleeve for a sing-a-long.
I really do enjoy everything about this Christmas album. The gold and red simplistic cover, the comfort of the organs and chimes, the fact that it's just called, "Merry Christmas." It coming on red vinyl is just a super bonus.
I hope you enjoy this day however you can during this rough year. I appreciate you hunkering down in the Cabin Corner with me and I wish you and yours only the happiest and healthiest of holidays.
Slainte!
