ChristmasDisney356
An Adaptation of Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Presented by the Popular Repertory Company. The Walt Disney Players. Disneyland Records D 3811. 1974.

Scrooge is Scrooge McDuck of course. Bob Cratchit is Mickey Mouse, Marley's Ghost is Goofy who steals the show. This is a good video. I haven't listened to the record yet, we just got it.

Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer by Tex Johnson

Rudolph Red Nose 136
Rudolph Red Nose 137
Tex Johnson and his Six-Shooters. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Premier Albums XMS4. Not sure of the year, but I would guess 1950s. There were two other covers for this album. Of course, Gene Autry had the big hit with Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Burl Ives did the singing in the claymation TV show.

I'm going to be posting several Christmas albums in the coming days. Also, I hope to be moving to retrohound.com. I'm not sure at this point if I'll be able to transfer what I've posted so far.
