It's Christmas Time/Happy New Year to You! by The Qualities, Satur(n) Records, 1956(?)
This is a rare and messed up vocal/doo-wop record produced by Sun Ra and Alton Abraham. Sun Ra plays harmonium. Vocalists are unidentified.
Happy Holidays to all. I'm going to try to take a break from posting until the new year.

That's my all-time favorite Christmas song.
Thanks for all the great material this year. You incessantly invigorate my tumblr thing (credit always provided, of course).

Man! Everybody wants to record a "standard" don't they? I think I heard Der Bingle sing this once. GREAT. Thanks!
happy holidays! this song rocks!
Hi Matthew, Paul, Jim and Ben,
Thanks for your comments.
The b-side is great too. Turns out, both sides are on the compilation Sun Ra: The Singles (Evidence, 1996).
Have a great holiday.
Michael
Happy holidays:)
