About The Record:

Christmas Fun With, by Spike Jones, features two of hit hit Christmas songs. All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth was a novelty Christmas song written in 1944 by Donald Yetter Gardner while teaching music at public schools in Smithtown, New York. He asked his second grade class what they wanted for Christmas, and noticed that almost all of the students had at least one front tooth missing as they answered in a lisp. Gardner wrote the song in 30 minutes. The Spike Jones version of the song reached No. 1 in the USA in 1948 and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2007. His version of Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer peaked at No. 7 on Billboard's pop singles chart and No. 8 on Billboard's Best Selling Children's Records chart and became a perennial favorite.
