Chet Atkins had already become known as the architect of the “Nashville Sound,” yet this album revealed a gentler shade of his artistry. Here, the guitar becomes less a showpiece and more an instrument of memory, carrying the familiar melodies of the season with a grace that never draws attention away from the songs themselves.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded at RCA Victor Studios in Nashville with engineer Bill Porter, the sessions benefited from the studio’s renowned clarity and intimacy. Each track feels close, like a private performance in a quiet room lit only by the tree. Atkins approached these carols and standards with a deep respect for melody, allowing the lines to breathe and unfold as naturally as a winter hymn. His fingerstyle technique, precise, warm, and seemingly effortless, wraps each tune in the kind of comfort that can only come from a musician who plays from the heart rather than for applause.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist(s): \u003c\/strong\u003eChet Atkins - Guitar\u003cbr\u003eThe Anita Kerr Singers - Backing Vocals\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecording Info: \u003c\/strong\u003eReleased 1961\u003cbr\u003eProducer – Chet Atkins\u003cbr\u003eEngineer – Bill Porter\u003cbr\u003eRecorded in Nashville, Tennessee\u003cbr\u003eSourced from a 4-track tape\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComponents used for Transfer:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eAnalog: Transport - Studer A810 modified with Flux Heads\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePreamp - Custom Tape Pre-amp designed by Victor Khomenko of Balanced Audio Technology\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDigital: Merging Hapi Analog to Digital Converter clocked by an Antelope Audio 10MX Atomic Clock\u003cbr\u003eSoftware: Merging Pyramix v15\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePower Conditioning: Shunyata Research Everest 8000 for all components with Shunyata Sigma-X Power Cords.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll components are grounded to Shunyata \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eALTAIRA Hubs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Jingle Bell Rock 1:50\u003cbr\u003e2 Winter Wonderland 2:49\u003cbr\u003e3 Jolly Old St.Nicholas 2:14\u003cbr\u003e4 White Christmas 2:21\u003cbr\u003e5 Blue Christmas 2:53\u003cbr\u003e6 Jingle Bells 1:50\u003cbr\u003e7 Silver Bells 2:09\u003cbr\u003e8 Little Drummer Boy  2:33\u003cbr\u003e9 MEDLEY:The Coventry Carol,God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen 3:26\u003cbr\u003e10 The First Noel 1:48\u003cbr\u003e11 Hark!The Herald Angels sing 1:56\u003cbr\u003e12 O Come, All Ye Faithful 2:22\u003cbr\u003e13 Deck The Halls 1:15\u003cbr\u003e14 Silent Night 2:01\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/3319\/files\/dsd256_badge_480x480.png?v=1516987294\" alt=\"\" width=\"110\" height=\"98\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note: This release was edited in DXD PCM from a DSD256 Master\u003cbr\u003ethen the DXD edited master was used to generate the final DSD files using\u003cbr\u003eMerging Technologies Album Publishing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDXD (352.8KHz 24\/32 bit PCM) is one of the best and least destructive formats for post-processing DSD originated digital recordings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCopyright © \u0026amp;
