For his first Christmas album, 1963's The Christmas Spirit, Johnny Cash's golden baritone is framed handsomely by the sterling production of the great Don Law (Robert Johnson, Bob Wills, Ray Price). The sundry set features The Man In Black's own moving originals like "The Christmas Spirit," "The Gifts They Gave" and "Who Kept The Sheep" alongside compelling spiritual fare like "Silent Night" and "The Little Drummer Boy," plus well-suited takes of Tex Ritter's classic "Here Was A Man," and his sweetheart June Carter Cash's "Christmas As I Knew It."
