25 Holiday Records: 4 : Phil Spector's A Christmas Gift For You


We're counting down to Christmas Day with a list of 25 records we have in the shop at Royal Cat Records! Why? Because vinyl rules!

Our next record is one of the all-time great Xmas albums.

#4

A Christmas Gift for You
by Producer Phil Spector and Various Artists
Phil Spector records
originally released 1963

This classic features a collection of songs by the groups and proteges Phil Spector made famous. Classic songs given the Spector "wall-of-sound" touch that, for many of us, still resonate with a modern, big-city, soulful feeling. Check it out!
