With Jose Feliciano on both the acoustic guitar and the cuatro of his native Puerto Rico, you get a talented musician having fun and enjoying the holiday spirit. While it's been covered in a dozen different styles, the original remains the best possible version of Feliz Navidad. Jose Feliciano absolutely owns this song.
