A pretty odd ragbag of artists is featured on this various artists project on the sleeve of which states, "Lection, Wing and PolyGram Records has joined together to bring you. . . a heartfelt record filled with the true meaning of Christmas." As the first song up is "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" by glamour model turned dance diva Vanessa Williams you may want to take that with a certain pinch of salt but there are some good gospel artists here: Lexi, Edwin Hawkins, Witness and some so-so soul pop ones (presumably non-Christians) like Safire and rappers Tony! Toni! Tone! with a MOR orchestral man Randall Atcheson to close. Quite odd.
