CHRISTMAS IS THE LARGEST CARD-SENDING HOLIDAY OF THE YEAR; RESEARCH SHOWS THAT NEARLY TWO-BILLION CARDS ARE SENT, EVERY YEAR. ANOTHER POPULAR TRADITION IS PLAYING CHRISTMAS MUSIC: EVERY YEAR, HALLMARK TAKES PART IN THAT TRADITION, BY OFFERING AN EXCLUSIVE CHRISTMAS C-D; THIS YEAR, IT'S BARRY MANILOW'S "IN THE SWING OF CHRISTMAS". HE RECORDED 10 SONGS FOR THIS NEW ALBUM--INCLUDING AN ARRANGEMENT OF "SILVER BELLS" THAT'S JUST ALL VOCALS: HE DID 26 OVERDUBS OF HIS OWN VOICE, IN WHAT JOKINGLY REFERS TO AS AN "EGO TRIP"; HOWEVER, WHEN HE PUT THEM TOGETHER, IT SOUNDED GREAT--LIKE A HUGE CHOIR. MANILOW RECORDED OTHER CLASSICS FOR THIS EXCLUSIVE HALLMARK C-D--LIKE "JINGLE BELLS" AND "HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS". BARRY MANILOW'S "IN THE SWING OF CHRISTMAS" IS AVAILABLE ONLY AT HALLMARK "GOLD CROWN" STORES. FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT "HALLMARK"-DOT-COM--OR CALL 1-800-"HALLMARK", TO FIND A HALLMARK "GOLD CROWN" STORE NEAR YOU.
