A festive compilation, 2018's Ella & Louis Christmas brings together a hearty mix of holiday-themed songs recorded over the years by trumpeter/vocalist Louis Armstrong and vocalist Ella Fitzgerald. Here we get a cross-section of tracks each artist made on their own, including traditional favorites from Fitzgerald like "Sleigh Ride," "Jingle Bells," and "Frosty the Snowman." There are also several of Armstrong's humorous hipster cuts including "Cool Yule," and "'Zat You, Santa Claus? Also featured are several of their famed duets, including 1951's "Would You Like to Take a Walk?" and 1957's "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm."
