The second 4 Seasons album, released right after Sherry (a #6 pop success) and Big Girls Dont Cry (#8), The 4 Seasons Greetings was a surprise success for the group and their record label Vee Jay, eventually hitting as high as #13 on the album chart. For the original release in 1962, the first side of the album featured traditional Christmas songs, sung pretty much as intended, but it was the second side of the album, which featured contemporary material, that really stood out, allowing the group to give full rein to their natural rock and pop tendencies. The resulting album is a tour de force, establishing something of a template for Christmas albums in the years to come (Motown in particular released a series of Christmas albums that were in much the same vein).
