Perry Como Sings Merry Christmas Music was Perry Como's first Christmas album, originally released as an RCA Victor 78 RPM album set in 1946. The original release included "O Little Town of Bethlehem" which was dropped one year later and replaced by the famous "White Christmas". This album has been somewhat overshadowed by Como's later stereo Christmas albums, Season's Greetings from Perry Como and The Perry Como Christmas Album, but is nonetheless one of the all-time best-selling Christmas albums and has been reissued several times.
In 1961, RCA Victor reissued the album on its budget label, RCA Camden, minus the track "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town".
