Here is a great rare vintage original Three Suns album called "A Ding Dong Dandy Christmas!"

If you're looking here, you probably already know that this is legendary as the wackiest Christmas lounge record ever.

Very happy, upbeat, creative and weird!

Here are some rave reviews:

"A Ding Dong Dandy Christmas is nuts all the way through.

"There is at least one other Three Suns Christmas record, but nothing approaches this one.

"Santa's sleigh is hauling fast with this all-uptempo platter of holiday mayhem." -Tony Wilds

"Definitely one of the best (and craziest!) Christmas albums around.

"Charles Albertine really outdoes himself with the arrangements on this mostly traditional material." -Kevin Sartori, Psychotic Leisure Music

"Well, here it is, the one you've all been waiting for.

"Ever since I found this last month, I've been excited about it.

"This is really the place where The Three Suns made their Christmas reputation.

"They actually made it in stereo, but all I've found so far is the mono version. But I did finally find it, and for that I am grateful. (I may have a line on a stereo copy, but that's still in wait-and-see mode.)

"Trust me, you're going to be happy when you hear this. This is maybe the most amazing Christmas album ever. I can't say enough about it.

"Note how the title even includes an exclamation point. Sorta like Esquivel!

"Only ten years from their first Christmas album, they had worked their way up to this! Of course, there were two albums of Christmas tunes in-between, so obviously the group loved their holiday music." -Ernie

Stereo sound was only one year old and very expensive when this came out in 1959.  Few could afford stereo players, needles, or records.  So this stereo version is really hard to find.

But ya really gotta hear this one in stereo because they use so many wacky stereo panning effects.

Vinyl is VG+, with light surface marks that don't affect play.

There is one nasty looking mark, but it is not even feelable, so not to worry.

First pressing.

Made in Canada, so it is about ten times as rare as the US pressing.

Label is RCA Victor Living Stereo.  LSP-2054.

Beautiful cover art.

Cover is VG+, only because of extensive seam splits.

This album has sold for 108 dollars, so a starting price of 10 dollars and no reserve is pretty good.

A great rare piece of wacky Christmas music history.

Good luck and have fun.
