    Just *not* added to the list, two Christmas clunkers by Bill Haley in
    his early days:

    Was hoping for Western Swing, got treacly pop. What a disappointment.
    But the terrific bluegrass number makes up for it.

    Okay, had to look up treacly, and then treacle as treacle just said resembling treacle.

    As for the Monroe, not for me, but this is a gem on the same label.

    Treacle is molasses. Treacly means sticky and sweet--*overly* sweet. I
    think it might be more of a British term.

    Not for me. Louis Armstrong's singing mostly turns me off.
