Nat King Cole – The Christmas Song [Stereo] (Vinylphyle Series Edition)

(AAA) — Lacquers cut from the original analog master tapes by Joe Nino-Hernes at Sterling Sound.

The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole, with its ubiquitous namesake song, has become one of the most popular holiday albums in the Christmas canon — a collection that permanently linked Cole’s velvet baritone to the season itself.

For this Vinylphyle pressing of the album, actor and award-winning writer James Ritz has put together a new essay for the liner notes.

Each Vinylphyle release features all analog mastering from original sources by an elite group of today’s top vinyl cutting engineers (unless sequenced analog masters don’t exist). The LPs are pressed at the world-class audiophile vinyl record pressing plant RTI, on 180-gram black vinyl. The production and packaging seek to honor the stature of these recordings and include tip-on wrapped gatefold jackets in satin matte finish, printed on clay-coated board, with archival poly sleeves and a four-panel insert featuring new liner notes. Backed by RTI’s craftsmanship, these releases are produced at the highest levels and include extensive quality controls at every step of the process, from mastering to plating to pressing and printing, ensuring a superb final product.
