Fans of Henry Mancini will find Merry Mancini Christmas to be an ideal holiday record.
Released in 1966, at the height of his popularity, the album is filled with the lush arrangements that are his aural signature, and they sound perfect when matched with these 11 Christmas medleys and carols. It is a warm, appealing record that blends easily into the background, making it a good choice for holiday gatherings of all sorts. (Stephen Thomas Erlewine)
