One of a pair of holiday collections by now-defunct Oglio
Records (the other being The
Edge Of Christmas), Coolest
Christmas (1994) appears to have had little or no
rational behind its track selection process. Despite that,
we're presented with a bunch of, well, cool tunes - most
of them classics. What Guy Lombardo and the Cocteau Twins
have in common has yet to be determined. (Note that the
version of the Bing & Bowie medley included here is
the hard-to-find unedited take.)
