Second only to the aforementioned Andy Williams, Bing Crosby sits undeniably upon the top of the veritable heap of Christmas music available today. His smooth sound is a Holiday classic that, hopefully, will forever be associated with all things December. Only Frank Sinatra remains to flesh out the trifecta of Williams, Crosby, and Sinatra that comprise the greatest Christmas classics of all time.
Happy Holidays, and a definite Merry Christmas, even if it’s not entirely time for those sentiments. These tracks hail from the time tested album, The Very Best of Bing Crosby Christmas (iTunes) and are a must have for any true Christmas collection.

Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Andy Williams
Frank Sinatra rounds out the top three all time Christmas Albums. Although I’ll always love Frank I’m not sure if his lounge singer act will ever trump the likes of Bing Crosby or Andy Williams. Maybe he was too much of a vagabond to ever really corner the market on something as traditional and respected as Christmas. Regardless as to the reasons he’s not my favorite he still has the standard Sinatra pinache and it puts an interesting spin on some classic songs.

Bing Crosby is the next man in line for these Christmas posts. His Christmas album is a classic owned by or at least familiar to every American family. His voice has the swagger of Christmas albums that have long since moved from classic to traditional and you can always tell Thanksgiving has passed when you start to hear Bing on the radio.
