''My Favourite Christmas Carols'' is the sixth studio album by Robin Gibb. Released in November 2006, it was the final studio album to be released in his lifetime and is the only album to be composed entirely of traditional Christmas songs. The album was recorded from August to September 2006, the time on which many Christmas albums by other artists are recorded. In November 2011, Gibb was diagnosed with colorectal cancer〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bee Gee Robin Gibb: frail singer is battling liver cancer )〕 and died in 20 May 2012 at the age of 62 from liver and kidney failure. ==Album information== Recording took place in Dublin and London.

The instrumental tracks are by Kwesi Graves (Although credited as Michael Graves on ''Magnet'') including pipe organ and string sections and sometimes they push envelope with percussion beats.
