merry, merry, merry, merry, happy
Mr. Miller here may be a bit partial towards Mr. Mitch Miller, cuz, afterall, the man had a TV Special on the very night I was born!!
Here's something interesting: the first track of this is the same as on the "Captain Kangaroo Merry Merry Christmas Album" available at the "Blog of 999 Dances"! (Selected tracks of the album are available at "Check The Cool Wax" too.) That's definitely Bob Keeshan's voice at the beginning. So Mitch Miller's band was backing the Captain? Quite a coup for the Captain!
Mr. Severed Head, Thanks for sharing that info. Oddly enough, after receiving this 45 and adding it to my yearly mix, I got a separate mix from a friend with the exact same song on it. Only, her CD had it listed as Capt. Kangaroo. I remember thinking, "Geez, they really went to town copying the other person's sound!" Merry, Mr. Miller
Is there any chance of getting this file reposed as a zip rather than a rar? (Of course, I can't open this file as is.) Thanks for your trouble and consideration.
