Season's Greetings from Perry Como was Perry Como's sixth RCA Victor 12" long-play album, released in 1959 and the forth recorded in full "living" stereophonic sound. This album was meant to be Perry Como's version of Bing Crosby's highly popular Christmas concept album
The album, Season's Greetings, is warm and relaxed, feuturing lush renditions of "Winter Wonderland," "The Christmas Song," "O Holy Night" and seven other Christmas tunes.
