Merry Christmas is a compilation album by Bing Crosby that was released in 1945 on Decca Records. It has remained in print through the vinyl, CD, and downloadable file eras, currently as the disc and digital album White Christmas on MCA Records, a part of the Universal Music Group, (reissued in June 1995) and currently on vinyl as Merry Christmas on Geffen Records (re-issued in September 2014).

This album (Bing Crosby's "White Christmas") is a true Classic. My mother had the album on 78 rpm records. The original title was "Merry Christmas", and it consisted of only eight of the present twelve songs. "Silver Bells", "It's Beginning to Look Like Christmas", "Christmas in Killarney" and "Mele Kalikimaka" were not included; they were added later. I bought the album on LP record in 1968, and just this. All of these songs have been recorded by countless artists in every musical style, but nobody ever sang "Jingle Bells" or "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" like Bing, accompanied by the Andrews Sisters. I believe this album will live as long as there is a Christmas.

Aficionados of Bing Crosby's '50s recordings have often looked in vain for more material along the same lines. Crosby's artistic highlights of the era, outings like 1956's Bing Sings Whilst Bregman Swings and 1957's Bing with a Beat, simply let him exercise his interpretive chops with arrangements that were as loose and seemingly unstudied as his singing. Recorded by Crosby for use on a short radio show (it was one of his last regular appearances on a medium that was quickly losing the race to television), these 160 sides usually feature only a small quartet led by keyboard player Buddy Cole.

Rosalie from Newark, DeI really love this Album by Bing Crosby. I grew up in Singapore in the 1950's and 1960's, and this is the ONE Christmas Album that went around the world with us (Literally) through the years!!! I still have the Album, By The Way!!! Rosalie. Stefanie Magura from Rock Hill, ScI didn't even know that there was a verse left out of the original song.

From Bing Crosby to Bob Dylan, Motown to Death Row, we rank the best Yuletide listens ever. If you're looking for actual, traditional Christmas music, you couldn't do better than this rich, fascinating album of carols done by the New York Latvian Concert Choir, which is conducted by 74-year-old Andrejs Jansons. Mixing modern and ancient, Christian and pagan, sung in a clean, distinctly Baltic vocal style, this music powerfully evokes the richly textured, American immigrant experience.
