"Season's Greetings from Perry Como", originally released in 1959, was Perry Como's sixth RCA Victor 12" long-play album and fourth recorded in full "living" stereophonic sound, as well as his first full-length Christmas album.

The album is warm and relaxed, feuturing lush renditions of "Winter Wonderland," "The Christmas Song," "O Holy Night" and seven other Christmas tunes (including a re-recording of Como's own 1954 hit, "Home for the Holidays").
