Long before anyone had heard of the Beatles, the Ventures influenced kids around the world to invest in electric guitars. The quartet delivered a sleek, instantly recognizable sound. The Ventures were also one of the first rock acts to conquer the album market, selling large quantities of their LPs at a time when rock ’n’ roll was still largely a singles medium.

One of the band’s best-loved longplayers is The Ventures’ Christmas Album. In the years since its release, The Ventures’ Christmas Album has remained a holiday favorite. Tracks from the album continue to grace the radio airwaves during the holiday season. But the best way to experience these instrumental gems is on the complete original vinyl LP.
