SATURDAY'S SINGLES : PERRY COMO and PERRY COMO

Good morning gang and welcome to the return of the Christmas edition of Saturday's Singles. Yes Virginia, this is a Christmas and it is today ! We get the festivities started with this double shot of  singer, actor and television personality, Perry Como. We have these two cool Extended Play 45s that come in cardboard sleeves that look like ornaments, that you can actually hang on the tree. They were released in 1953 on the RCA Victor label and were the nucleus of his Christmas album, "All Around the Christmas Tree". 

One of them is titled Christmas Joy and this is the track list :

A1 Joy To The World
Written-By – George F. Handel, Isaac Watts


A2 Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer
Written-By – Johnny Marks


B1 Frosty The Snow Man
Written-By – Jack Rollins, Steve Nelson 


B2 The Christmas Song (Merry Christmas To You)
Written-By – Mel Tormé, Robert Wells 

Lead vocals - Perry Como

Chorus – Mitchell Ayres' Chorus
Orchestra – Mitchell Ayres' Orchestra

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

This second record is called Around The Christmas Tree and the track list for it is :

Twas The Night Before Christmas
The Twelve Days Of Christmas
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S

However when I opened it, it had a different 45 inside with these songs instead :

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
Frosty The Snowman
Winter Wonderland
Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer
Jingle Bells

1,3, 5 Russ Case and His Orchestra

2,4     Mitchell Ayres' Orchestra

With a little more research, I was able to find that this record is actually from 1956 and is called  Perry Como Sings Merry Christmas Music.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

“Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”

Merry Christmas 2021 gang !
