Mario Lanza dedicated to my dad
Christmas time. Time to reflect the last year.Did we achieve the things we wished for at the beginning ? Did we get a better job with more money ? Did we buy that new car ? That new house ?
I'm just happy with the handkerchief which belonged to my father, who died some 15 years ago, and I which always carry with me.
He was a simple man who was just plain happy with his family for which he worked so hard all his life. Christmas was always special to him. The whole family together joined around the Christmas tree. All happy faces. The stable with just born Jesus Christ. Going to church in the middle of the night. Old Christmas songs. Cold outside. Throwing snowballs.
He liked singers like Caruso, Al Jolson and Mario Lanza.
As a tribute to my dad I'll play today Mario Lanza - Christmas with Mario Lanza 1950_1958.
Nice crooner songs like 'Deck the Halls', 'O Come All Ye Faithful' and ' The Lord's Prayer'.
This album went straight on to #1 in the American album list on 22 december 1951, so exactly 55 years ago ! Can you image, time flies.

Thank you so much. For many years we have always had his Christmas album blasting very loud while we decorate the Christmas tree. The tradition continues, now we can enjoy it digitally.
The world is so much better for his wonderful voice. Thanks for keeping it alive for new generations to enjoy as much as we do.
