The download has 'mixie pixie' (not on my record album). On my record the very last song was a fast-paced version of 'jingle bells' (not on your download)). Anyway I gave a copy to my sister and she had tears of joy as it brought back childhood Christmas memories.

One is the one you have listed Christmas is for Children.<BR/>The other one is called A Children's christmas - it does have Mixie Pixie on it. It is Bravo Players and Orchestra , has a pic of santa in his sleigh with reindeers on the front. Has some traditional songs along with Little Christmas Stocking with a Hole in the Toe , Mixie Pixie, I;ve got 18 cents for Christmas.<BR/><BR/>Difference between the two for the rare songs is Christmas is for Children does NOT have Mixie Pixie but does have Ding Aling Dong the Sleighbell Song, Tinker town Santa Claus. A Children's Christmas has Mixie Pixie but does not have the other two I just listed. Both have 18 cents for Christmas, Little Christmas Stocking with a hole in the toe.<BR/><BR/>We have an online music business and sell out of both of these records every year. Been that way since the first year we found them.<BR/><BR/>Ebay has them often as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9650669.post-37931950301091994592008-08-20T11:57:00.000-04:002008-08-20T11:57:00.000-04:00Dancer - The Cricketones on YouTube?

The Sound Of Christmas was one of my other favorites with lone girl in mid song saying "please Mr. Santa won't you bring me a sleigh!"<BR/>The Christmas Carol narrative I liked because it had great voices and eerie music when the ghosts appeared. The story ended with the song God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, with Scrooge struggling to sing along in the background. <BR/>I still have the original vinyl album, but not with the original cover unfortunitely.dancer56https://www.blogger.com/profile/15434725095670063218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9650669.post-88206630989826357302007-12-13T16:22:00.000-05:002007-12-13T16:22:00.000-05:00This is the definitive christmas album of my child...This is the definitive christmas album of my childhood.

For a few years I sent out about 20 copies per season to people who found out I had this record and wanted a copy. This is such an easier way to share it.<BR/><BR/>I also enjoyed your analysis of the record. It has been part of my Christmas since I was about the age of the lad on the cover, so I accept everything on it at face value.<BR/><BR/>The Mixie Pixie track was on a 45 that was backed with one of the other Cricketone tracks from the album, but I don't remember which one at the moment.Inkydoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03122663541047821615noreply@blogger.com
