I am listening to a cd of Christmas songs from the 1930's and 1940's
The songs have the big band sound to them.

The singers are the popular singers of the day, very interesting to listen to.

The cd has 3 disks, only cost $5.

Some of the songs I have never heard of, others are still heard today.

I like finding cd's like this.

1. What are some of the songs, texanwitch?
I really love big band music. Is Judy Garland's Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas on it? I think she did that in the '40s...

3. No, but she sings other songs on the cds.
All populars singers back then are on the cds.

Frank, Perry, The Mills Brothers, Rosemary Clooney, Nat King Cole, Dinah Shore, The Andrew Sisters, and many more singers.

This is a cool cd.

I found it at Sears.

There are 25 songs on each cd.

singing Santa Clause is coming to town? I love the end when they sing, "I mean the big fat man with the long white beard, He's comin' to towown!
