Everyone knows this one.  I bought it new just when it was released:

My favourite Christmas song ever(maybe because I'm Jewish):

 

It's WAy too short.  I want it to go on and on, and on!

This is a nice late '60s Detroit Christmas ballad.  Unfortunately I can't convert from my record player to digital:

the impressions actually (sort of) do a version of this song. It's on a curtom special products 45 (I think it's SP-3), it's the impressions wishing you a happy christmas. There's a recording of them singing the song in the background with an overdub of curtis, sam, and fred wishing you a merry christmas.

I did a radio show featuring all Xmas records once (at Christmas obviously) and people started ringing in to complain saying "why are you playing all this Xmas sh*t, play some rare soul Steve!" :ohmy:
