Rocky Mountain Christmas is the tenth studio album by American singer-songwriter John Denver, released in 1975.
His first Christmas-themed release, the album includes renditions of several traditional carols and popular Christmas standards; re-recorded versions of two songs from earlier Denver albums, "Aspenglow" from Take Me to Tomorrow and "Please, Daddy (Don't Get Drunk This Christmas)" from Farewell Andromeda; and the newly penned compositions "Christmas for Cowboys" and "A Baby Just Like You".
The current CD reissue of the album includes 2 bonus tracks: "Jingle Bells" (from Denver's 1970 album Whose Garden Was This) and "White Christmas" (an outtake from the 1975 album sessions). The 1998 reissue also added "The Music is You" (from Back Home Again), "Perhaps Love" (a solo version of his duet with Plácido Domingo) and "Dreamland Express" (from the eponymous album).
