You went with the right one, Dennis. I remember Gene Autry very well also - part of my fond childhood memories. If you don't know the history behind Rudolph, you'll enjoy this: http://www.altogetherchristmas.com/tradi...dolph.html

Laurie, thanks for posting the story. Don't believe I ever read that. Bet you didn't think anyone would get that right away. Now if only I had an original recording. Wonder if that was 45 rpm or 33-1/3. Have to stop showing my age.

We had the record when I was a child, and I think it was a 33-1/3. Wonder how many on the forum even know what vinyl records were, let alone their rpm...
