Best Christmas Record?
whats the best christmas record ever? whilst the best selling record of all time is Bing Crosby (White christmas) i dont think it holds a candle to Phil Spectors - Christmas Album, every track a gem.

Re: Best Christmas Record?
I like Mariah Carey's 'All I want for Christmas is you.'
and 'When a child is born.' I'm not sure who sang that.

Re: Best Christmas Record?
I still like white christmas, but your information is wrong cashman, white christmas, having been the best selling single for decades, is now only the best selling christmas record of all time, the title of best selling record ever belongs to a certain Elton John for the candle in the wind - tribute to Diana.
