Produced by Dale Don Baldwin
Label – Scripture Records

Don and Cheri Baldwin have gone back and put many of the old Couriers records on CDs. I now own two of them and they are excellent duplications of the old records. Most of the pops and hisses are gone.

This Christmas CD is old, possibly recorded in the 60s, so the instrumentation is not what it would be today, but if you are one of those many who read this web site and LOVE those old recordings, then this one will fit you to a tee. You are able to catch the feel of the 60s recording while listening to it on modern technology.

This CD is full of great Christmas Carols, including:

The First Noel
Angels We Have Heard On High
Oh Little Town Of Bethlehem
Angels From The Realm Of Glory
Joy To The World
Oh Come All Ye Faithful
There’s A Song In The Air
It Came Upon A Midnight Clear
Silent Night
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Lord Bless And Keep You
Oh Holy Night

If you want a copy of this great old record on CD contact Cheri Baldwin at , she can tell you what you need to do to get one.

Deon, I'm glad to see you reviewing projects like this...this classic Christmas album was recorded in 1964, and recorded in just a few hours!

I own the original LP, and have 2 CD copies of it as well...and although my LP is in excellent condition, the CDs seem to enhance the sound quality(and thus the listening experience)substantially!

For the interested, almost all of the Couriers Quartet's recordings on LP are now available on CD...most of them because of Cheri and Don. I would recommend contacting them if one is looking for this classic gospel material.

Thanks Deon...and John, for your appreciation of and recognizing the Classic Couriers music. The "Joy" CD is circa 1963/64
I appreciate the prayers and concern of your readers for Don during his 21 day hospitalization. He is doing so much better these days. Thank the Lord!
Blessings to everyone at sogospelnews for your part in preserving "the treasure" of southern gospel music.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by location and http// I'm not so adept at this new technology as I'd like to be. Please respond. Found your site as I was surfing and keyed in "Couriers Quartet" which I grew up on.

Thanks,
Sam
