I am searching for a Christmas album from my youth.  I believe the
title is "Sleigh Ride, Jingle Bells".  It contained such songs as
"Santa Claus's Birthday"  "There's A Hole in My Christmas Stocking". 
Can you help me find this album?  I would like to purchase more than
one copy, if multiple copies are available.

It is amazing how the little things from our childhood bring back the
greatest memories.  The album you are looking for is titled "Sleigh
Ride Jingle Bells" and is by The Caroleer Singers and Orchestra,
sometimes referred to as only The Caroleers.  Here is the breakdown of
all the tracks on the album

Sleigh Ride/Jingle Bells 
Ho, Ho, It's Christmas 
There's a Hole in My Christmas Stocking 
A Ride on Santa's Sleigh 
Santa's Birthday 

Side Two
Christmas Mountain 
The Christmas Stocking 
The Little Elf 
The Little Christmas Star 
Mama Santa's Surprise

It appears the album was released in the early 60's (61 or 62) and is
no longer in print.  So, while I have not been able to find a copy via
traditional retail outlets, I have found the following locations
listing the album for sale

Enjoy the music of your youth this holiday season and thank you for
your question.  If you need any further clarification, please let me
know.
