Hailed as "the best holiday album ever" by Salon, Ella Wishes You A Swinging Christmas has been a cherished holiday classic amongst jazz aficionados for more than 60 years. Ranking #10 on Rolling Stone's "25 Greatest Christmas Albums of All Time" and #2 on The Guardian's "20 Greatest Christmas Albums” this stunning edition introduces a new spirit to this timeless collection of classics from Ella and makes for a perfect gift for any fan.  

She sings (and swings) Jingle Bells; Sleigh Ride; Winter Wonderland; and more! Ella puts her singular stamp on everything from a sultry vamp like "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?" to the sweet and cozy "The Christmas Song." Even potentially shop-worn standards like "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" sound fresher when they're coming from Ella Fitzgerald.
