This has some nice vintage tracks, but is missing kind of essential sides-
MILLER -JINGLE BELLS
KING SISTERS - SANTA CLAUS IS COMIN' TO TOWN
WOODY HERMAN SCICTTOWN, JINGLE BELLS
FATS WALLER - SWINGIN' THEM JINGLE BELLS
GOODMAN, DORSEY - WINTER WEATHER
I THINK OZZIE NELSON DID A 'SLEIGH RIDE' IN THE MID 30s.

maybe it's just me, but I can't stand Christmas swing songs, at least not any more than I can tolerate regular Christmas songs.
I'd rather just hear good swing songs that happen to have cleverly appropriate names, like
Holiday for Swing

Followed only by eating a hot turkey dinner at lunch time on a 40 degree C Christmas day. Colonialism has a lot to answer for.
