Album Review
Have a Holly Jolly Christmas is a compilation of holiday songs performed by Burl Ives. The award-winning actor performed the definitive version of the title track, thus forever cementing his place in the genre. The other songs here (many of which have also gotten quite a lot of radio play) are all standards for the most part, and are all sung in Ives' sweet, fractured croon. Fans of the title track will probably enjoy the rest of the album, and any other curious listeners may also want to give this a try.
Customer Reviews
Comforting and Heartfelt
After some deliberation I bought this album during the 2006 Yule season, and I’m totally glad I did. This is a cozy, delightful collection of intimately-sung Christmas songs. Burl Ives puts his personable touch on even the hoariest of Christmas standards, and it is like having a beloved member of your own family sing them to you in your living room.
Grab a hot chocolate, put on this album, and warm to the spirit of the season.
i <3 Christmas

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas
From beginning to end this album is a treasure! The sound of Burl Ives is the sound of Christmas. There are many songs that I have never heard but they are wonderful and sentimental. Overall this is a great album and for Christmas there isn't one better.
