Connie Francis – Christmas In My Heart

Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo

Connie Francis is the prototype for the female pop singer of today. At the height of her chart popularity in the late '50s and early '60s, Francis was unique as a female recording artist, amassing record sales equal to or surpassing those of many of her male contemporaries. Ultimately, she branched into other styles of music -big band, country, ethnic, and more. Christmas in My Heart (1959) is Connie's one and only Christmas album. The album features popular songs of the season on Side 1 and traditional Christmas carols on Side 2. It was recorded in August 1959 at EMI's famous Abbey Road Studios in London under the musical direction of Geoff Love and was released in November 1959.
