That was possible because the Christmas record fare was abun dant and good. Special works were pointed out and reeomended for gift giving, while others were pre sented for their general entertain ment value. This Christmas holiday, the list of records is even more discrim inating. More artists and church and choral groups have pressed records centering on the singing of carols and dealing with specialized themes of Christmas, Thus, musi cally at least, there is no excuse for anyone to say he hasn’t “got the Christmas spirit.” In fact, the roster of Christmas albums is so large that there is on ly room for a few of the choicest in this column. But these I know will delight you. RCA sends Christmas cheer with the following albums: “A Ding Dong Dandy Christmas” by the Three Suns, a surprise package featuring tunes rang ing from “White Christmas” to new Yule novelty tones; Tops Christmas Tarty," as played by the Boston Pops Orchestra with Arthur Fielder conduct ing. and "A Christmas Sound Spectacular”, with John Kiein at the Carillon Americana The latter features chimes and sounds. All are idea! packages. DECCA mixes sweet sounds, in cluding a foreign portrait of Chris tmas, in its Yule fare. On the ! sweet side is maestro Jan Garber, who plays a “Christmas. Dance Party”, while sounds and voice are featured on “The Spirit, of Christ mas--Past, Present and Future?’ os i J Wm.' j B WL L. v? -4^ IP / ’ ’ wKHHp 5i v wSHe zfpN CM'* LIVING MADONNAS AT BENNETT—“Adoration of th Shepherds." a painting by George W.

The choir, directed by Patho- Francis X. Duffy, is an annual fea ture at Midnight Christmas Mass at the cathedral. Here they lift their voices in 12 beautiful carols and hymns, including the eve r beautiful ‘Silent Night.” A select recording, this album will brighter your Christmas and also make an ideal gift. As stated, these are but a few of the many fine Yule albums on sale, but they are good samplings of the Christmas fare. Hope you enjoy them.
