A low-key Christmas winner

One overlooked Christmas CD that doesn't get much radio airplay is Freddy Cole's "I Want A Smile For Christmas."  Nat King Cole's brother has a low-key, understated, natural voice that does Christmas carols justice.  Of special note: Cole's version of "A Cradle In Bethlehem."  Over seven minutes, Cole presents an engaging, subtle take on an underplayed carol.
