Episode 28: We Wish You A Merry Christmas by Ray Conniff and the Ray Conniff Singers

Perhaps the quintessential Christmas album? We encourage you to start your own Ray Conniff style caroling flash mob and take advantage of these extrodinarily festive arrangements of classic holiday songs.

We bought this album by accident! The record was stuffed inside another album sleeve.
