In a similar vein, this record featured Dirksen reading a selection of popular Christmas stories and poems, over a musical accompaniment. The text was "written" by Dirksen and Charles Wood, the record was conceived by H. Paul Jeffers, produced and directed by Arch Lustberg, and released by Capitol Records. The music was written and performed by the John Cacavas Orchestra and Chorus.
