Salsoul Orchestra - Christmas Jollies (Red Vinyl)

1976's Christmas Jollies was one of the most played albums in clubs, on radio, in record stores and on television during the classic dance era and still maintains its status as one of the most revered albums in the holiday music genre. The vinyl has been out of print for many years, Friday Music is very honoured to announce the first vinyl repress of The Salsoul Orchestra's "Christmas Jollies".

The Salsoul Orchestra initially consisted of many of the original members of Philadelphia International’s MFSB, who had moved to Salsoul as the result of a disagreement with producers Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff over finances. Other members began performing as The Ritchie Family and as John Davis and the Monster Orchestra. On later MFSB and Philadelphia International recordings, Gamble & Huff used a new rhythm section which resulted in a slightly different sound.

Limited Edition RED vinyl produced by BMG in 2022. Includes OBI strip.
