Album Notes & Community Reviews

Solidifying his status as a titan of holiday pop music, the 'Singing Cowboy' delivers incredibly warm, sincere renditions of seasonal standards. 'Merry Christmas' famously features the legendary, definitive recording of 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,' which became one of the best-selling singles of all time. The album is an absolute cornerstone of the mid-century American Christmas aesthetic.
