Brenda Lee’s ‘Christmas Tree’ Collection Climbs to No. 1 on Top Country Albums Chart
'Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree: The Decca Christmas Recordings' becomes Brenda Lee’s first No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart.
Brenda Lee reaches another landmark as the legend notches her first chart-topper on Billboard ’s Top Country Albums survey (dated Jan. 4, 2025). The set features 18 songs, including Lee’s 1958 multigenerational title-smash, which led the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks last holiday season, and such Yuletide favorites as “Blue Christmas,” “I’m Gonna Lasso Santa Claus” and “White Christmas.” The track, co-written by the Virginian (born Collins Obinna Chibueze), first hit the summit in May and now passes Gabby Barrett’s debut smash “I Hope,” which governed for 27 frames beginning in July 2020.
