It was particularly disappointing and curious that the 2018 CD release did not include a recording of It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year, the song she actually performed in 2018; why promote a new CD with a song that is not included on it?
Too, the audio from her televised performance in Christmas At The White House [[during the Obama era) could be obtained and included on the next re-release.
And it would be helpful if the existing material might be remastered, as the two original individual CDs had kind of iffy, inconsistent sound quality, although I liked most of the material to one extent or another. [[Most of the repeats from the 1965 sessions were better in their first iteration, in my opinion, although it was revealing to listen to the takes from two different eras, some 30 years apart, in her life and ours.)
