Ho! Ho! by Lou Rawls offers a smooth blend of holiday standards and soulful interpretations that set it apart from typical seasonal fare. The album includes warm renditions of \"The Little Drummer Boy\" and \"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,\" delivered with the rich, velvety voice that defines Rawls’s style. This 1967 pressing captures the intimacy of a small acoustic group, making it well suited for focused listening during the quieter moments of the season. Rawls’s approach here is less about bells and whistles and more about heartfelt, relaxed charm—proving you can make \"Merry Christmas\" more than just a greeting. This copy comes on vinyl graded \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/blogs\/news\/how-we-grade-vinyl-records-at-the-den\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eVG+\u003c\/a\u003e, meaning it’s a strong listen with only minor surface marks or paper scuffs that won’t overshadow the music. The 12-inch format presents the album in its intended flow, and the pressing year places it in the heart of Lou Rawls’s prolific period. If you’re looking to add a festive album with genuine vocal warmth that doesn’t rely on holiday clichés, this record fits neatly into that role—after all, a merry vinyl doesn’t have to come with a side of static.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-track-listing=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack listing \u0026amp; samples\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLou Rawls - Merry Christmas Ho!
