Ken Griffin - Christmas Organ
Last year at FaLaLaLaLa , I began my career in Christmas sharity. One of these shares was a 45 single of "Winter Wonderland" and "Up On The Housetop" by Ken Griffin that I had just acquired from my in-laws record collection. If you look at the Rondo label of " Winter Wonderland ", the credited songwriter is Irving Berlin! Fact checking wasn't a huge priority in the music industry back in the 1950s obviously. When I typed out the description for that record, I didn't know who Ken Griffin was. I did some Google searches for background information and the like. At the time, I stated that Ken released two Christmas albums: + Christmas Organ And Chimes (Rondo-Lette A-40), 1950/1951 + The Organ Plays At Christmas (Columbia CL-692), 1959 Some new research informs us that Griffin did indeed release a Christmas album entitled "Merry Christmas (Organ And Chimes)" (Rondo RLP-10) in 1951. It was a 10" LP that I haven't found... yet...
