The Takeaway

It’s the week before Christmas and, as usual, The Takeaway is celebrating with our annual “Remixing the Holidays” series.  Throughout the month, we’re talking with musicians, actors, experts listeners about the best and worst songs of the season.
Today’s guest is Grammy award-winning singer and actor  Olivia Newton-John. Her newest album is a collaboration with John Travolta, called “This Christmas.” In addition to Travolta and Newton-John, the album includes contributions from Barbra Streisand, Tony Bennett, James Taylor, and others. Proceeds from the album will go to children’s and cancer charities.
