Music Notes With Howard - Barbra Steisand / A Christmas Album




Music blogger extraordinaire Howard spreads some gay Christmas cheer with a little Babs...




Perhaps my favorite Christmas album of all time, Barbra Streisand's A Christmas Album was released in 1967. Between Streisand's magnificent voice and the sheer joy in the music, it is irresistible. Now, there were no music video's in 1967, so we just have the songs on YouTube.







If you don't already own this, you should. You can get all 11 tracks on iTunes for just $7.99 by clicking here.

  3. I love this CD. And Barbra's "Jingle Bells" is such a unique arrangement. I couldn't watch all this video. I started to get dizzy. It's almost like a strobe light. Yikes. LOL.
