Dubbed \"The Godfather of Exotica,\" the turban topped Pandit created eerie background music for radio's occult adventure series, \"Chandu the Magician\" on his Hammond C-3 and Nova Chord organs. He was soon featured on his own television show, \"Korla Pandit's Adventures in Music\" which debuted in 1949 on KTLA in Los Angeles. Pandit recorded several theme oriented albums over the course of his career featuring exotic sounds and eccentric effects. The classic Christmas album is presented here in it's entirety, all selections newly re-mastered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 White Christmas \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Merry Christmas \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Ave Maria \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Bist Du Bi Mir \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Silent Night \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Jesu Bambino \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Joy to the World \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Hark the Herald Angels Sing \/ the First Noel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
