Like many of the other reviewers, this is a treasured memory from my childhood. I grew up listening to this recording, made tapes from a *very* scratched album and wore the tapes out too. This was the first record my parents ever got! We lost the vinyl copy in a flood, and I have been searching in vain for years to find a replacement. This is a wonderful album, full of the peace and harmony that Christmas should bring! Listen to this and you can feel the Spirit of Christmas!
