Elvis recording of "Blue Christmas," that came out on his Christmas album in 1957 brought forth the Memphis sound he was known for with masculine background vocals and soul. Elvis would sing this song hundreds of times in his life, and good thing, because he loved it personally.
Now, we've got the hang of posting YouTube video presentations to help illustrate the history of my story, but choosing which one, so you could listen to Elvis' rich baratone in the original version wasn't easy. The one we chose doesn't have any pictures of Elvis and it wasn't made as a "cover" by an Elvis interpreter or impersonator. We noticed that some of the videos listed had implausable dates on them, as well. This one is like a living Christmas card though, a real work of art, and with it we say "Merry Christmas," to all of you.
