Question
Hi Dean,
Can you tell me what instumental, electronic/synthesizer type Christmas Albums were released in mid 1970s. There is a song I first heard on the radio in the mid 70s and I still hear it occassionally each Christmas but I do not know the title/artist.
Thanks
Good question! I really don't know what synthesizer phonograph records were released with Christmas songs in the 1970s. The closest ocmparison I can think of are the current Mannheim Steamroller and Trans-Siberian Orchestra materials available now. Perhaps you're thinking of John Lennon's Happy Christmas which might be in that genre.
