Here's a very nice compilation of blues, R&B, and group harmony Christmas sides from the late 1940s and early 1950s. Some of these tracks are well known, but others are pretty darned obscure. If you don't have the well-known tracks, you should. And if you like the well-known tracks, then you will like the lesser-known ones as well.
