Album Snowfall: The Tony Bennett Christmas Album by Tony Bennett Review
With British arranger/conductor Robert Farnon handling the transatlantic sessions, Tony Bennett's 1968 Christmas album turned into a swinging affair, from the version of "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music (how did this song become associated with Christmas?) to seasonal standards like "White Christmas" and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas". Bennett's warm style was especially winning on this kind of material, making an inevitable assignment a winning combination of singer and songs. [In 1994, Columbia Records added one track - a version of "I'll Be Home for Christmas" recorded on The Jon Stewart Show - and reissued Snowfall on CD.]Review by allmusic.com
