Osmond Christmas Album is a holiday album by the Osmond family, released in 1976.[2] The album peaked at No. 127 on the U.S. Billboard Top LP's chart, a modest improvement from their previous two albums.
The original double album consisted of twenty Christmas songs (listed below) combining some original songs with traditional carols and secular Christmas standards, and included all seven performing members of the Osmond family, the first studio album to do so. Each track featured one of the various acts encompassed by the seven siblings: The Osmond Brothers, Donny Osmond, Marie Osmond, Donny & Marie as a duet, or Jimmy Osmond.
Later re-issues on compact disc were under the title Osmond Family Christmas and had eight of the original tracks removed, including all of Jimmy's solo performances. Some of the re-issued tracks added Marie singing along with her brothers on tracks that she originally did not perform on.
The track Sleigh Ride is a completely different song from the Leroy Anderson composition.
All of the Osmonds (the brothers with Marie and Jimmy) perform together only on the Pine Cones & Holly Berries/It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas medley.
Caroling Medley, an assortment of ten traditional Christmas carols, is performed by the Osmond Brothers a cappella.
"Caroling Medley" (Caroling, Caroling/Here We Come A'Caroling/Christmas Is A-Comin'/God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen/O Little Town Of Bethlehem/The First Noel/Hark The Herald Angels Sing/O Come All Ye Faithful/Joy To The World/Deck The Halls/We Wish You A Merry Christmas)
