Hi Chip,

Thanks for posting these Kitty Wells clips.  We just don't hear her records anymore on the radio.  I'm not 100% sure as I haven't looked at a lot of Christmas albums, but I think I have her album in my collection as the picture you posted looks very familiar.  I have so many records that I haven't categorized yet so I can't be sure if I have it or not.  I may be thinking I saw it at a Thrift Store and that might be why it looks familiar to me.  If it was in good shape I know I would've bought it.   My short term memory isn't as good as it used to be lol.  I can't even tell you hom many Christmas albums I have in front of me near my computer, but would guess there are at least 300+.  Than I have a couple boxes with maybe 200 in each maybe more and that is just my Christmas albums.

I am slowly getting them onto the computer where I am able to get easier access to what I actually have.  It's a tedious process as if the music skips it isn't something I will want to keep and then I have to try and find a better copy online somewhere.  I don't mind the pips and pops as that is what gives vinyl it's distinctive quality.

Thanks Chip,

I still have some albums packed in boxes and if I have this album it would be in those boxes.  Being that we are trying to move, it is just easier to leave them in boxes that are already packed.  I hope we can find a place before the winter sets in but it isn't looking to promising.  If by some chance I don't have this album, like you mentioned, I can probably get in on eBay.

Thanks again.

Chip,

Do you know if the version that is being sold online are the tracks off the '62 lp, or are they re-recorded versions?

Another questions, does the album 'Christmas' that was released on Mistletoe records contains all the Decca tracks... I have a feeling that it is missing the same tracks as the CD.

It's a good song, but still has a touch of that country "twang" that turns me off.  I've never been able to listen to country music because of that.
