We skip ahead a couple of years to 1961 with a version of "Jingle Bells" by another popular entertainment - Sammy Davis, Jr.!
This cut is from the all-star album "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" on Reprise Records:
Very snappy version!
Sammy returned to the song in 1965 where it was paired with "It's Christmas Time All Over the World" on another all-star album, "The Great Songs of Christmas, Album Five," a Goodyear promo item released by Columbia Records:
We had that album when I was a kid (I still have it) as did seemingly every other family!
Lots of good stuff on those, but you can't beat Sammy!
