Peter Atwill With The Wiltshire Gospel Singers - Sings.... For Christmas album flac

The Wiltshire Gospel Singers. Members: Andrew Stone (9), Phil Kilminster.

Elvis Sings The Wonderful World of Christmas is the fifteenth studio album by American singer and musician Elvis Presley, released in October 1971. It was his first Christmas album with new recordings since Elvis' Christmas Album (1957). The album's single, "Merry Christmas Baby", "O Come All Ye Faithful", was later released in November 1971.

This album, originally released as The Magic of Christmas in 1960, provides baritone reassurance that Christmas is a happy time, not an annual family debacle. But the secret ingredient is Cole singing hymns in German and Latin: straining to put across foreign lyrics, you can hear him employing all his professional skill. On this 1995 album, he found that the true meaning of Christmas was cool jazz instrumentals. At age 70, he no longer needed to prove his virtuosity; instead, he plays with a light touch and leads a swinging six-piece band. But just as great are the unknown singers doing songs you've never heard, some religious, some raunchy, like "Christmas in Jail – Ain't That a Pain.

Songs for Christmas is a box set of five separate EPs of Christmas-related songs and carols recorded by independent musician Sufjan Stevens between 2001 and 2006. The EPs had been given as gifts to friends and family of Stevens over the past six years, except for 2004 where he was too busy recording the Illinois album.

Elvis’ Christmas Album is, arguably, the best testament to the King’s artistic interests of all his albums as it masterfully tackles rockabilly, gospel, country, pop, and gospel across its 12 tracks. The most enduring cut, though, is the equal parts woeful and hopeful Blue Christmas. A new entry in the Christmas canon, this R&B rave-up showcases a Michael Jackson-channeling performance from one of Atlanta's best new soul singers. Bob Rivers – "The Twelve Pains of Christmas". Goofy Christmas tracks are in no short supply, but this perky rundown of the holiday's more hellish aspects has a relatable moment for everyone, from crying kids to hangover shakes. But the songs belong together, even if the singers didn't: two of country music's most beautiful voices taking turns singing lonely Christmas laments. Wynette's performance of "White Christmas" is just as melancholy as Jones's "Lonely Christmas Call," making this the perfect album for nursing a holiday heartbreak.

This 1956 modern gospel gem easily makes the list of Best Gospel Songs Of All Time, and was penned speedily while soul singer Sam Cooke was on his way to a recording session with his group The Soul Stirrers. Their majestic harmonising on ‘Touch The Hem Of His Garment’ is a lovely example of male quartet singing from that period in American music when vocal groups were so popular. Cat Stevens: ‘Morning Has Broken’. Morning Has Broken’ is a hymn written by the English children’s author Eleanor Farjeon in 1931. I don’t know where you got your information about Patty Griffin making her Downtown Church album with the Staple Singers but it is wrong. The Staples Singers had long ceased being a group by the time that album was recorded in 2009 and none of the members appeared on the album.
