Description

This Christmas LP has withstood the test of time and is considered by many critics to be the best album of his career.


“A Christmas Gift For You” originally had the misfortune of being released on November 22, 1963, the same day as the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and was not a major commercial success that year. In the years since, however, it has been embraced as a beloved pop–culture touchstone, with many of its tracks becoming holiday airplay favorites.


In 2003, “A Christmas Gift For You” was ranked Number 142 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. Long–time Spector fan Brian Wilson has named it as his all–time favorite LP. The album’s influence has also been reflected in cover versions by contemporary artists.


I acquired this vintage record from a friend who was very close to Phil Spector and was given this record from Phil Spector’s personal collection years and years ago before he went to prison sadly. I have no evidence of this but I do Believe it because this album is very very rare and not many of the original albums were sold.
