This record has a handful of really good tracks."Sing A Kris Kringle Jingle", "Wait For The Wagon On Christmas Day", "Jolly Old Saint Nicholas" and "Frosty The Snowman" are all pretty stellar. "Wait For The Wagon" is amazingly great as far as I'm concerned. The parts and layers of the voices are great. I can't hear this track enough at the holidays. As a little side note, I swear this track is actually the exact same track on the Christmas album by Slim Boyd and the Rangehands. I posted that record last year, praising the song "Wagon On Christmas". You can read that post here and download that track to compare. If anyone has any info on the history of Slim Boyd or The Caroleer singers to help explain which came first or why the same recording was credited two different ways, I'd love to hear it. My suspicion is the Slim Boyd may have been a record label creation with session musicians and singers and that later that recording was just re-purposed for this Frosty The Snowman record. That is just a guess though.
The other thing I really like about this record is the artwork. I love this snowman.
Enjoy!

How nostalgic to hear this again! This was my favorite Chistmas album as a kid in the 60's. I first had the original Diplomat Caroleer album with the photograph of the little girl lighting the candles on the tree and later this Frosty cartoon cover which i still have. I was just getting ready to dig mine out and rip it and I found yours. Thanks!
Glad I could save you some time. Enjoy the songs.
