Music For Christmas At Home
Album US 1965 on Longines Symphonette Society label
Pop, Classical and Soundtrack (Operetta, Religious)
Track C1 - C. B. Adams wrote several songs, Joy to the World was not one of them; Watts and Mason credits have been added. Track C2 - Title "Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairies" is incorrect; There was only one in the Ballet 'Nutcracker' Track C4 - Listed incorrectly as 'Good King Wencelaus' on the liner notes Track C5a - John W. Barkley did obtain a copyright for a song of this title in 1951, but it was not the carol on this recording Track D4 - Organist Shippen-Barnes & Shakespeare contributed to the writing of a short anthem in 1923 called 'Three Kings'. This release contains an arrangement of a the carol "We Three Kings Of Orient Are" written by John Henry Hopkins in 1857 and credited accordingly. The hub label on Side D incorrectly shows 5 songs in the Medley, only two are contained in the second track with the remaining tracks containing one carol each. Title on Hub Labels is 'Home For Christmas' The Liner Notes provided inside the Gatefold album cover are entitled "Christmas at Home in America" and would be used for all three 'Shell Wonderful World Of Music - Special Christmas Editions' and for the 'Home For The Holidays' release (with the title changed to match the release)
