Why This CD Matters
Phil Spector’s 1963 Christmas album brings his layered “Wall of Sound” production to holiday standards performed by artists from his Philles roster. Darlene Love, The Ronettes, The Crystals, and Bob B. Soxx And The Blue Jeans deliver the set’s big vocal performances, including “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” and “Sleigh Ride.” The result is a distinctive blend of girl-group pop, orchestral backing, and seasonal songs.
