Christmas In The Time Of Covid 19, Part 7

I didn't think I had anything to post for Easter a little while ago, but I guess I didn't dig hard enough.  I'll make up for that today with a new addition to the Christmas collection of animal helpers for Santa, Herbie (Christmas Rabbit)!  I kid you not, it's a rabbit, and he helps Santa, but he doesn't seem to do much. I couldn't find heads nor little fluffy tails of this one on the internet, so if you know any more about it, please let me know. I'm leaning towards either song poem or religious singing group family for this one. If you've got a strong stomach for Christmas characters, please download and enjoy Kim Lovering-Herbie (Christmas Rabbit) b/w Ken & Bonnie Allen-Christmas Time Is Here (Gio 7" 45 RPM UR 1601, Stereo, 1979), both sides featuring Ken Masters Band, so I gave them the main artist credit here.

    And if you need some more old Christmas music from shellac courtesy of The Internet Archive, how about four more sides from Sammy Kaye?

    Nothing as good as Santa Claus For President, I'm afraid, but nothing too bad. Four sides from three different records spanning quite a few years of his career. Enjoy!

    They must have been running out of Christmas animals at that point. I wonder if there is a Christmas anteater or possum somewhere.

    I wish! If kangaroos can pull the sleigh in Australia, then I'm sure possums could do it too. Or at least store toys in their pouches. :)

    Stubby,

    These Christmas critters are out of control. I blame you and Ernie.

    I don't understand how the possums are able to fly. They never explain how that works in the song. Maybe it's in the book.

    Thanks for the note, but then who is Charlie Snyder? Oh, you're the writer of the Fly Possum Fly song! Welcome to the blog, thanks for stopping by! More Christmas music please! :)
