Hello Everybody! I have not posted in a while, and now it's time to kick it into high gear. I heard a terrific song today and knew that I had to post the album for share. Leroy Holmes was an American composer, arranger and band leader throughout the 50's, 60's and 70's. What you will find on this record is that quintessential 60's sound that we love in so many great artists of that time. The song Snowflakes And Sweethearts transported me to Christmastime. Other tracks that are going onto my Christmas playlist are; The Worst Darn Winter In Years, Button Up Your Overcoat and Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow.
Snowflakes And Sweethearts
Thanks for the post. Great little-known record. Is there any way you could post a larger scan of the cover?

This is GREAT! Not 100% Christmas, but an excellent collection that's certainly in the holiday spirit.
I'm looking forward to some of your new cover photos.

Thanks for sharing this. I found a copy of the sleeve this past weekend, but no record. I'd never seen it before, yet here it is, all neatly packaged and ready to go!

Thanks, guys. This year I will be digitally photographing or scanning 250 album covers and posting as a Flickr set.

Great share...I bet. I find it hard to believe anyone has successfully downloaded this record. I've tried multiple times over several days and not been successful yet. (I get it partially downloaded then connection times out)
Maybe someone can share a link to rapidshare or megaupload of the same. Pretty please...:-)

Thanks for spotting the issue, the download is working now, rapidshare mp3s
