"Sing Again with The Chipmunks" is The Chipmunks' second album. It follows the same format as their first album. It was released in 1960. It contains the A-sides to their fifth and sixth singles—"Alvin's Orchestra" and "I Wish I Had A Horse". It was released in January 1960 (see 1960 in music). The album has been ressued twice on compact disc, in 1990 and 2008; both CD versions use the revised 1961 cover artwork minus the song lyrics printed on the original back cover.

Success

The album was expected to do as well as their previous album "Let's All Sing with the Chipmunks" which peaked at #4 on Billboard's Pop Albums Chart, but instead the album only peaked at #31 on the Pop Albums Chart.

Album cover variations

The original issue of the album depicted three realistic looking chipmunks on the cover sharing space with a photo of David Seville. When the album was reissued three years later, a new cover was substituted, that of an "Alvin Show" animation cel setup reenacting the poses the original chipmunks and Seville made.

Miscellanea

This album has Alvin's first songwriting credit.
This album also marked The Abnuceals Emuukha Electric Symphony Orchestra's recording debut
