The collection also acknowledges the work of Hollywood's voice actors with songs by Walt Disney favourite Cliff Edwards (the voice of Jiminy Cricket) and Jim Backus (Mr. Magoo).
Finally, the collection concludes with the complete 1959 stereo album 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas - 15 Great Christmas Favorites sung by Warner Bros. Stars'. This specially recorded album includes songs by stars of the popular television shows '77 Sunset Strip', 'Hawaiian Eye', 'The Alaskans', 'Cheyenne' and 'Bronco' as sung by Roger Moore, Connie Stevens, Dorothy Provine, Eddie Cole and others.
