This brings back memories of when I was a kid. Thank you for preserving this.

My four sisters and I all have a half a dozen different Waring Christmas albums. I have put all of them on cd now.

I'm happy to see someone else remembers this great Christmas song. I played this song from my father's vinyl in the '60s. I transferred it from vinyl to CD recently not knowing it's available on CD.

Thanks for posting.

@wonmoretyme What's the album called? I'd like to get it. Where did you see it available on CD?

[wonmoretyme]

@smiskie The album is called "The Sounds of Christmas" on the Capitol label. The record no. is ST-1260. My copy was purchased in the early '60s by my parents. "Ring Those Christmas Bells" is available on Ultra lounge: Christmas Cocktails, Part 1 whitch is also on the Capitol label (on CD). I've never seen the complete record on CD. I transferred mine from vinyl.

@wonmoretyme When I mentioned that I didn't know it was availabe on CD, I was referring to "Ring Those Christmas Bells" only, not the whole album.

@wonmoretyme Thank you very much for the info.
