For many people growing up in the 60's & 70's, Ray Conniff and his vocal group defined "easy listening". Locally, WROW was among the stations that had Conniff in heavy rotation until the station began to evolve away from the likes of Conniff & the 101 Strings back in the 80's.
In 1965, Conniff was given a Christmas special. What is not entirely certain is if it was on a network or in syndication. Alan Young (Mister Ed) is a special guest.
A year later, the Ray Conniff Singers scored their biggest chart hit with "Somewhere My Love". "Here we Come A'Caroling" is is heavy airplay on radio this weekend, to be sure.
Rating: A.
