The Philippines is known all over the world for having the longest Christmas Season. Stores begin hawking Christmas wares late in August and decorations go up after All Saints’ Day in November. And we keep those up to Jan. 6 which was once the Feast of The Three Kings. The date was moved some years ago to the first Sunday of the year but it is no use telling the Christmas hungry Pinoy that. Hereabouts we cling to Christmas as though for dear life.

You can do this by getting a copy of With Love in Our Hearts Unexpected Christmas Duets and Trios featuring Rico J. Puno & Friends. This is a fund-raising album conceived by musical director Toti Fuentes and his manager Bibsy Carballo to benefit children living with cancer.

                    [Summary] => Move over Bublé, the real swingers are here! I mean Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr., those exceptionally talented and charismatic artists of the past who gave a new meaning to the word ‘swing’ are back with a new Christmas CD.  So get the small fry out of the way for the moment because make no mistake about it, Christmas time 2003 just acquired a ring-a-ding-ding spin with the arrival of Christmas with the Rat Pack.
