    Too bad it's not a St. Patrick's Day album.

    That's kinda gross, actually.

    Jackie Gleason...? Really?

    What started the trend of easy listening/instrumental albums having busty half naked girls on the cover? There are tons of them. Was it Herb Alpert?

    We had this one when I was a kid. It sounded about as good as the cover looks.

    Marketing Departments. Even when it comes to Christmas records, sex sells!

    Thank you to those who have been discussing this album. I've never heard it before, never a fan of Judas Priest, but I'm always up for a new and different Christmas album. This is now one of my favorite Christmas albums. Thank you for introducing it to me!!!

    Looking at that cutie front and center prompted me to do a quick search for Ray Conniff album covers. After doing so, all I can say, is, WOW. Could that guy pick 'em or what!

    And the early press looks good spinning on the turntable around the holidays.

    When looking at this album cover, I've always ignored the "big Tony head" and focused in on the "stressed-out businessman", imagining him leaving his city office late and alone on Christmas Eve. To me, the image gives off a feeling of despair similar to the scene in It's A Wonderful Life where Jimmy Stewart contemplates suicide.

    I guess the smiling "big Tony head" is needed for balance to keep the cover from being too depressing. :)

    I really like this one, especially the warm glow of the lights reflecting off the walls.

    Al does look pretty sinister here...."Hey little girl, wanna touch my trumpet?"

    I think so... Herbie Mann just used naked pictures of HIMSELF.
