Everyone from • Bruce Springsteen to Alabama and Ray Charles to the Chipmunks has felt the need at one time or another to sing about Christ's birth or Santa's travails. No matter what your musical taste, lthere's a record out there you can play as you sip your egg nog this December. Perhaps the best yuletide music in the rock genre is Phil Spector's Christmas Alb the 1963 classic featuring Darlene Love, th - stats and others giving a soulful rendition I the holiday favorites. Another treas re is 1957's Elvis' Christmas Album, which RCA has just reissued, comple wi h a color booklet and a record pressed 't. ree-green vinyl. It con- tains surprisin: y successful versions of Santa Claus I Back in Town and other Christmas standards. Also in the oldies category are Jingle Bell Rock, first 'done by Bobby Helms and then covered by Bobby Rydell and Chubby Checker, and Santa Claus Is Coming to Town, as performed by the Four Seasons. Rock radio stations inevitably play Spr- ingsteen's version of Santa, but in order to get your own copy you'll have to track down an old Children's Television Workshop charity record called In Harmony Two — that's the only format in which it was releas- ed to the public. A favorite. with' children and adults alike are the Chipmunks' versions of Christmas songs, the best ofwhich is Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, which was a hit back in 1960. ' Also still available is the "record that saves lives," last year's Do They Know It's Christmas? from Band Aid. The money from buying the record still goes to feeding the starving in Africa. A new entry is the John Anderson Christmas Album, featuring the work of Cars guitarist, Elliot Easton and sometime Cars producer Roy Thomas Baker. It's dominated by new Christmas Songs written by Anderson. • The best Christmas records by country ar- tists this season include B.J. Thomas' All. Is Calm, All Is Bright, a collection of tradi- tional Christmas songs and hymns; and The Best of Christmas From RCA, featuring Dolly Parton, The Judds, Charley Pride, Hillary Kantor and others. Country -music fans also might be in- terested in Alabama Christmas, featuring a number of new ,Christmas songs from the country supergroup, and The Statlers' Christmas, which also has original ,composi- tions. A fine collection oto traditional holiday songs is Spirit of Christmas, by the great Ray Charles. Check the jazz bins, and you may find a few selections decked with an array of holi- day cheer. The Stash label, is out with The Stash Christmas Album, featuring 16 blues and jazz classics from Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet, Duke Ellington's Hot Five from 1925, Paul Whiteman, Ted Weems, Benny Goodman doing Jingle Bells, Lionel Hamp- ton and Dinah Washington. Two highlights are Ella Fitzgerald's 1950 rendition of Santa Claus Got Stuck in My Chimney, Washington's Silent Night and Armstrong performing 'Zat You, Santa Claus? and a gravelly a capella version of The Night Before Christmas. 'Tis the Season to Be Jammin' is the San Antonio -based Im Cullum: Jazz Band's merry contribution. • This Dixieland-ish group does Christmas spirituals quite nice- ly, including a stunning version of Ave Maria. It's available from World Jazz Records. Columbia Records keops distributing two fine Christmas albums — one from 1981, the other a 1962 classic. The recent one, God Rest Ye Merry Jazzmen, features Dexter Gordon, McCoy Turner, Arthur Blythe, the Heath Brothers, Wynton Marsalis and Pa- quito D'Rivera.
