Roger, Roger.
Great cover art on this one - front and back. It's a big ol' thick gatefold cover, as well, with some liner notes and the complete lyrics to the included songs.

Thank you! Your Roger Williams "Christmas Time" MP3 had the rendition of SILENT NIGHT I was looking for, straight out of WPAT's "The Spirit of Christmas!" For some reason, the other versions I found for sale were not exactly like this. Will never forget it, and will be forever grateful to you.
Cool. Glad to help!
Hi --
I was absolutely thrilled to stumble on your posting. My 3 siblings and I grew up on this album and a few other classics, which my father eventually recorded for each of us on cassette tapes many years ago. Our parents are long gone now, and the tapes are virtually worn out and unusable at this point. It has been such a joy to hear this wonderful music again! Thank you so much for posting this!
Excellent. Merry Christmas and Happy Listening!
Anonymous - This is the kind of response that makes running a blog worthwhile. Thanks for stopping by (and get ready for the 12 Days of Blogmass, starting very soon!)
Thanks so much, senormedia - you've made my Christmas, and my siblings will be thrilled too! Your site is a real treasure trove.
Merry Christmas -
Becky
Childhood revisited! Thank you so much...Merry Christmas to you and yours...a little early ;)
A tip for collectors, this LP has had 3 different cover design changes in it's catalog lifespan. Your copy's the original and best one. The original version also features the Christmas themed Kapp custom label, later copies had the Kapp stock labels of the time.
