The 4 Seasons Greetings is the second studio album by The Four Seasons. It was released in 1962 on Vee-Jay Records as a monophonic recording and later again the same year in stereo.[1] The album charted for 6 weeks on Billboard’s Best Bets For Christmas album chart peaking at #28 on December 18, 1965.[2]

Side one features traditional carols, while the second side contains their contemporary, rock and pop flourishes. The album was initially reissued in 1966 on Philips Records with a new title, The 4 Seasons’ Christmas Album, and different cover artwork, and again, on Curb Records in 2002.[3]
