High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Andy Williams Christmas Album is the first Christmas holiday album released by singer Andy Williams. It was issued by Columbia Records in 1963, and it would prove to be the first of eight Christmas albums released by Williams. Though it was also the album that introduced Williams` perennial holiday classic "It`s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year", Columbia instead opted to release Williams` cover of "White Christmas" as the album`s promotional single at the time.
